dirt racer you weren't supposed to make it easy for everyone else

OK...Here we go
1.) 1956....by Tim Flock...Monkey's name was Jocko.
2.) Richard Petty
3.) 1986
4.) Jimmy Spencer
5.) Al Unser Sr. I believe is one of them, which I know was in an IROC Race, but I'll have to do some research to find the NASCAR driver that did it..
Tommy Irwin was the NASCAR driver that did it.
I didn't try to amke it easy for everyone else....I already knew MOST of the answers.
I can't find anything on Unser ending up in Lake LLoyd, but I KNOW I've seen video of it, It used to be part of ABC's IROC coverage. It was a brown IROC Camero, #12, I think.

Are you trying to kill me Scooby, bad dog.
1) It was 1953 in a car driven by the great Tim Flock.
this is from timflock.com:Jocko Flocko was a Rhesus monkey and remains the only known "co-driver" in NASCAR history. On May 16, 1953, Jocko helped Tim win the Grand National race at Hickory, N.C. - becoming the only winning monkey to date. Unfortunately, Jocko was forced to retire from "driving" duties two weeks later in Raleigh, N.C. Tim Flock recalls the incident:
"I actually raced with a monkey, which I named Jocko Flocko, for eight races in 1953. It started as a publicity stunt, and we gave him his own driving uniform and a specially designed seat. Back then the cars had a trap door that we could pull open with a chain to check our tire wear. Well, during the Raleigh 300, Jocko got loose from his seat and stuck his head through the trap door, and he went berserk! Listen, it was hard enough to drive those heavy old cars back then under normal circumstances, but with a crazed monkey clawing you at the same time, it becomes nearly impossible! I had to come into the pits to put him out and ended up third. The pit stop cost me second place and a $600.00 difference in my paycheck. Jocko was retired immediately. I had to get that monkey off my back!"
2) The King, his son Richard Petty.
3) 1986 (hey, I'm class of '86)
4) Jimmy Spencer in the #57 car, he ended up 24th.
5) Tommy Irwin in 1962.
I swear to god I didn't even see dirtracer's answers, I've been hunting this stuff down for the last hour. I think I got them all, including the year for the monkey.
