Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:NASCAR race season infobox

The 1965 Fireball 200 was a NASCAR Grand National Series event that was held on February 28, 1965, at Asheville-Weaverville Speedway in Weaverville, North Carolina. The name of the race was likely a homage to the late Fireball Roberts who died the year before in Charlotte.

The transition to purpose-built racecars began in the early 1960s and occurred gradually over that decade. Changes made to the sport by the late 1960s brought an end to the "strictly stock" vehicles of the 1950s.

Race report

Two hundred laps took place on a paved oval track spanning Шаблон:Convert for a grand total of Шаблон:Convert.[1] It took an hour and nineteen minutes for the race to reach its conclusion; Ned Jarrett defeated Dick Hutcherson by an unknown length of time in front of 6500 people.[1] Notable speeds were: Шаблон:Convert as the average speed and Шаблон:Convert as the pole position speed.[1] Two cautions were given for an unknown number of laps.[1]

Total winnings for this race were $4,490 ($Шаблон:Inflation when adjusted for inflation).[2]

Most of the stock car owners were independent with only three "corporate" racing teams showing up for the event. Buddy Baker ended up as the last-place finisher; he would only finish nine laps out of the regulation length of 200 laps due to a problem with the back of his Plymouth vehicle. Most of the starting grid would drive automobiles designed by the Ford Motor Company; with the now-dominant Chevrolet brand only fielding three vehicles.[3]

Notable crew chiefs who actively participated in the race were Lanty McClung, Herb Nab, and John Ervin.[4]
