  • Episode 325 -- Ken Ragan on Helping Son David Getting Started in Racing
    2024/12/04
    We talked last week about some thefts that took place in the Atlanta garage and this week in the third and final installment of our interview with Ken Ragan, it gets even more serious with credit card after credit card getting boosted from team members. This time around, we get a high-stakes foot chase and … well … let’s just say some good ol’ fashioned frontier justice. Ken also remembers getting out of the sport, a near-miss ARCA win at Atlanta and helping his son David get started in the sport. When then tackle the August 2, 1984 issue of Grand National Scene. Barney Hall calls the shot before Dale Earnhardt "strokes" his way to a victory at Talladega. It turns out to be a bad day for Trevor Boys and James Hylton, while things had BEEN stormy for Robert Yates building engines for Richard Petty and Mike Curb.

  • Episode 324 -- Ken Ragan on Injuries, Thinking Twice About Racing and Tim Richmond
    2024/11/27
    After a chat with NASCAR Mavericks authors Herb Branham and Holly Cain, Ken Ragan talks about coming back from serious injury and then reconsidering his place in the sport after ANOTHER devastating crash. Ken then discusses his relationship with Tim Richmond, who was slated to drive Ken’s car in the 1988 edition of the Busch Clash. We then dig into the May 15, 1985 issue of Grand National Scene. It’s a superspeedway in 1985 … who do you THINK won that week’s Winston Cup event? If you’re thinking Bill Elliott, you would be absolutely correct … but he DID have to overcome a handful of problems before the halfway point in order to set sail in the FINAL couple hundred miles. Also, fallout continues from "Fuelgate" the month before at Pocono. NOTE: This show is not associated in any way with American City Business Journals, owner of the Scene brand.

  • Episode 323 -- Ken Ragan on Georgia Roots, A Promise to His Wife and ... Of Course ... Nitrous Oxide
    2024/11/20
    This week, we turn the mic over to Ken Ragan and he proceeds to regale us with one racing story right after another. Family that goes A LONG way back in the sport. A promise to his future wife. Making an offer on an old Bobby Allison race car. How his brother decided that they should go Winston Cup racing. It's all here, and more. Let's go ahead and put this out there ... Ken's Georgian accent is one of the best you've EVER encountered here on The Scene Vault Podcast. We then dive into the March 31, 1983 issue of Grand National Scene. Although he had to wait a week, Cale Yarborough wound up in victory lane at Atlanta after grabbing the lead on the final restart and cruising the rest of the way to the checkered flag. Ken Ragan makes the first start of his Winston Cup career, but finds himself in the middle of a late-race, multicar accident. There’s a reward out for the capture of a thief who struck in the garage area, while a couple of guys go full on redneck in the campground. We also say goodbye to another member of the Winston Cup Scene and Illustrated family. NOTE: This show is not associated in any way with American City Business Journals, owner of the Scene brand.
