1956 Southern 500 from Darlington Raceway | NASCAR Classic Full Race Replay

The race you are about to see appear as originally broadcast and may contain imagery that is offensive and doesn't align with NASCAR's values. NASCAR has since permanently banned the display of the confederate flag at all events.

I live in Daytona Beach where NASCAR was formed.
THIS WAS NASCAR !
MAN DRIVING THE HECK OUT OF HIS MACHINE.
I would actually start watching NASCAR again if they brought this exact same kind of racing back...Vintage cars..same rules... everything.
