Every
driver who has strapped on a helmet and climbed behind the
steering wheel has wanted to win at Darlington because the
toughest is most desirable. For those few select drivers who
have won races at the granddaddy of superspeedways, there
is a priceless satisfaction in knowing they've conquered the
unique egg-shaped oval nicknamed "Too Tough To Tame."
