This Day in History February 21, 1948

I admit to not being a race enthusiast, but in case you are interested, on this date in 1948,  National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) was incorporated.  It was originally founded by a small group of racers, but as I am sure you know, this is a very popular sport that is headquartered in Daytona, Florida.
