Tim richmond gay
Quoted:
Awesome driver. Probably straight.
ETA Actually, thinking back on it, there is just about no way he could have been a peter puffer in Winston Cup back in those days. I'm sure he got AIDS the same way Magic did...fucking every female within a 20 mile radius of him, wherever he went. He was wild as shit. Might have even gotten it from a needle.
Bingo
This.
I watched the exhibit last night too. The first time I missed the first 20 minutes or so, and the interviews and such made me think there was a 50/50 chance he was gay. I stayed up and watched it the second time, and came away thinking there was no way he was gay. Earlier in the episode they seemed to mention more that at that time people didn't really think you could get it via hetero sex, and because of that, they(Tim) worked harder to keep it quiet. A trip to the net seemed to confirm that he wasn't gay, and Wiki also suggests that he was straight.

Beyond the grave of Tim Richmond lies a trail of pretty women, following him into the ground.
Fresh flowers rest beside the tombstone of one former lover. A second ex-girlfriend, still fighting for her life, has picked out her casket. At least two former partners are in seclusion on the East Coast, awaiting the inevitable.Others - friends suspect a dozen or more - have passed on quietly, hoping to take this secret with them: Richmond, the late auto racing star, infected them with the virus that causes AIDS.
Panic seized women across the territory when media reports leaked the cause of Richmond's death in August 1989. LaGena Lookabill Greene, Richmond's former fiancee now dying of AIDS in Charlotte, received more than two dozen calls.

Tim Richmond was dying from AIDS, but his spirit was undaunted. On a sweltering summer day, he showed up for a race in Nashville -- wearing a leather suit.
"It must have been 110 degrees," Darrell Waltrip recalled, his voice rising, his smile widening. "He was the grand marshal. He was going to launch the race.
"Well, he pulled up beside my car and crawled in with me. He was soaking wet. I don't know how he even moved in that suit. He said, 'C'mon, D.W., I'm riding with you.' "
By then, the drive was almost over. Richmond's meteoric being took the checkered flag far too soon, struck down by a careless lifestyle and a terrible disease.
But, oh, what a legacy he left behind. Richmond crammed plenty of living into his 34 years, showing a extraordinary penchant for going fast on the track -- and even faster outside the fence.
Many NASCAR fans came to the sport after Richmond's death in August 1989. They have no notion what they missed.
"This would have been a different sport if Tim Richmond had lived," driver-turned-owner Richard Childress said.
