If longevity alone got you into the NASCAR Hall of Fame, Red Farmer would have been inducted a long time ago.
Farmer, the winner of the first Pioneer Ballot for racers whose careers began before 1961, traces his racing career back to the late 1940s, around the same time NASCAR was founded. And at the ripe old age of 89, Farmer is still racing on the short tracks of Alabama on Saturday nights.
Prayers for NASCAR racing legend Red Farmer. Elisa Allison Sproule tells me Red is in the hospital battling double pneumonia. He’s one of the toughest men I’ve ever met. Hang in there #RedFarmer 🙏🏼 @NASCARONFOX pic.twitter.com/rFmkzOlpHm
