The rivalry between Richard Petty and David Pearson wasn’t solely a battle between two stock car drivers. It propelled NASCAR from a regional sport to a national passion for race fans. Writer Michael Hembree has covered stock car racing since the 1960s and has a new book called “Petty vs. Pearson: The Rivalry that Shaped NASCAR.” Hembree joined Jeff Hamlin to discuss how Petty vs. Pearson made each other, and the sport, better.
