Darlington Stripe - Motor Sports (gambling)


A streak of scraped-off paint that appears on the right side of a car, from having made light contact with the outside wall. The term originated at Darlington back in the ' 60s, when the track had Armco for its retaining walls. Darlington has peculiarly-designed corners, and in the days of narrower tires, the fastest way for Stock cars to get through turn 2 (which was at the time turn 4) was to get right up next to the Armco, actually touching it, so that the corrugated metal rail produced a characteristic pair of scrape marks down the right side of the car. Richard Petty once said of Darlington: "Turn 4 would be perfect, if we were allowed to mount roller skates on the side of the car."
