Contrary to popular belief, this famous crash did NOT occur during the running of the Daytona 500, it occurred during this 250-mile Modified Sportsman race held just before the Daytona 500. This race was the precursor to the what would become known as the Busch Series, or later the Nationwide Series. (color) 1959-1960 Daytona 500 Documentary - (8 min) Condition (Excellent) - A contemporary look back at the first two Daytona 500's, hosted by Dave Despain. While I strive to always use original highlight reels in all my racing DVD's, this short contemporary segment just seemed like a fitting end to this DVD. (color) |
