NASCAR is an acronym for National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing. A mechanic from Atlanta named Red Vogt came up with the acronym and the name. Red Vogt was the mechanic for Red Byron, NASCAR's first champion. He owned a garage on Hemphill avenue in Atlanta where moonshiners running shine from Dawsonville, GA, into Atlanta could get their cars "souped up" to outrun law enforcement. The owner of Red Byron's car was Raymond Parks, a known moonshiner who still owns a liquor store on Northside Drive in Atlanta. Parks, Byron and Vogt were NASCAR's first team. These men all met with Bill France in Daytona at a hotel on the beach. They all came together to form the organization that became known as NASCAR.
