Larry Moore once came in as a relief driver on the blacktop track at Salem Indiana. It was extremely demanding on drivers to run this 500 lap race on the extreme highbanks of Salem. Anyway he got in a car for a driver that overheated and went on to actually win that 500.
He was one of the best on blacktop too.
I think it was Dave Dayton that he replaced. I've not been able to locate this event on the internet so far.
Stock car racing history at Salem has not been preserved, it doesn't appear.

If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention!
