| Comments: | Here's a rough picture of a car owned by a guy who had a pretty rough reputation... This is Pee Wee Griffin's Superspeedway Modified which on this day was driven by Neil Bonnett. Todd L informs us that this car currently sits in the International Motorsports Hall of Fame in Talladega. For a much better picture of this car, check out: http://www.petesracingsite.com/Daytona_Modifieds/ as you'll see this car and many of your other favorite pavement cars thanks to the hard work of Pete Montano. |

| 03/26/03 | Todd L | Car was driven by Bonnett only - NASCAR abandoned the idea after 1 year |
| 07/06/03 | Ed B | Pee Wee also drove this car at Trenton for one show he ran well for awhile then dropped out. |
| 11/23/05 | Allen Clark | Richie Evans drove this car before Neil did with a very long nose which produced too much front down force and made the car very loose. Richie returned the following year with his own car and Pee Wee also returned with this car with the shortened nose for Neil to drive. |
| 05/04/07 | Tom Wilkison | Pee Wee had two of those. They were built by Tom Pistone. His cousin, Buddy, and Bobby Brack ran a Govenors Cup race at Golden Gate Speedway in them. I believe Don Gregory in the Jegs car won that one. Pee Wee sent a lackey (Jack St. Clair) to get Dick Anderson to drive this car at Daytona and he came back with Neil Bonnet instead. |
