Race report
Two hundred laps were done on a dirt track spanning Шаблон:Convert for a grand total of Шаблон:Convert of racing action.[1] The entire race lasted one hour and thirty-eight seconds with four thousand people watching Ned Jarrett defeat Buck Baker by more than seven laps.[1][2] This was the first race competed in by J.

Cale Yarborough would receive his first top-5 finish of his career at this race.[1]
Notable crew chiefs at this race were Herman Beam and Crawford Clements.[4]
