During the mid 1900's with so many men out of work it was an honor to be called a redneck. If you were a redneck it meant you had a job. Rednecks were hard working men from the rural south and appalachia who were what today would be called a blue collar worker. They wore red bandanas around their neck to catch their sweat as they worked. It might have been a perticular job they did but I can't recall. This ties into rednecks, just for some other unless info NASCAR came to be from moonshiners./moonrunners It started in Georgia the moonrunners would race each others. They would put big souped up engines in their car and do different maneuvers so that they would learn to out run the law. The reason they were called moonshiner/moonrunners was because they made the shine and delivered it by the light of the moon. NASCAR legend Jr Johnson was also a moonshinner. and this is your history lesson for the day!!!!!
