Before this channel, it was already on KZread but on random channels - Between like a dozen users, we have available almost all Cup series ever covered on TV including the full races that started with the 1971 Greenville 200 (we didn't get a full season of full races until a decade later)

@@DanArnets1492it’s a damn shame we don’t have full races of these I wanna see a full race. I’m fairly young so I never got to watch dale sr but I get to watch him race full races I would love to be able to watch this whole thing. These almost feel disorienting because it’s lap 1 for a corner then lap 15 for another corner and never a full lap.

@@dedo7326 - Back then they were endurance races so the racing itself wasn't there a lot of the time, it was just about how much you wanted to risk car and limb. There's a reason why so few cars finished on the lead lap each race (often none!)

What a cool race this would have been to see in person. See those jets fly over the ocean and then 50 cars race along the beach, drifting into the turns. Then listen to Elvis as you drive home to the house you bought for $10,000

But were making $2/hour lol. Inflation was definitely better then but just because stuff was cheaper doesn't make it affordable.

@3:49 What's interesting to me is how Bill France and NASCAR revived this historical pilgrimage to Daytona Beach. The original events were sanctioned by the AAA and date back to 1903. Such an incredible history there in Daytona and Ormond Beach.

Thank you NASCAR for uploading all of these!

Beach racing certainly looked like fun to watch.

Stock in stock cars 😍

When my dad was a kid his brothers and him would set pieces of glass including coke bottles against the entry into what I believe was the 1st turn when it transitions from paved back to the beach. After the races they would go and dig back up their treasures, now sand blasted on the track side with brute force. A different time in American History and Americana itself.

Who is the broadcaster in this race? I've heard his voice for many years, but I don't know his name.

The narrator of this film was Ralph Camargo, who was known as the "Voice of Dynamic Films". Back then, Dynamic Films did most of the major auto racing highlight films, and while others, such as Ed Thorgerson, Russ Hodges, and a couple of others narrated some of Dynamic's early racing films, particularly their early Indianapolis 500 films from the early and mid 50s, Camargo is the voice most associated with Dynamic, likely beginning with the infamous 1955 Indianapolis 500, and carried on all the way through the film of the 1978 Southern 500, which might have been their last production (Dynamic had changed it's name to Custom Films in the 1970s).

@@davidmlbmotorsportsfan Beginning with that 1955 race. In fact, in my upload regarding the 1971 Indianapolis 500, the small portion where the pace car crash is shown was from a film Camargo narrated, and not a part of the official Indy film, as the pace car crash is totally ignored by those who did the official film of that year's Indy race.

@@davidmlbmotorsportsfan Strange thing is that two of the commentators that first helped bring auto racing to the masses with their film narrations, Ralph Camargo and Bud Lindemann, who had very different styles, are largely forgotten about. Camargo came first with his much more dramatic style, and then in the late 60s, Lindemann took the documentation of racing a step farther by not only narrating racing films, but creating a company that did it's own series, Car & Track Productions. In their own ways, they documented the legends that helped build auto racing to what it would become by the 80s and 90s, and I've always found it ironic that it was Lindemann that would be the one to narrate the official film of the race in which A.J. Foyt became the first 4-time Indy winner. (In fact, history would later show that in the three years that Lindemann narrated the official Indy film, the race was won by the men who would become Indy's first three 4-time winners, Foyt, Al Unser, Sr., and Rick Mears.)

I can't remember the year, but one of the EA Nascar games had this track as a bonus and was fun to race on.😂

It wasn't up to scale, it was like 2 miles long and the real one was over 4 miles long - Only games to get this track have been through fan mods on PC (Papyrus NASCAR racing games, rFactor, Automobilista, Asetto Corsa, etc)

If Goldsmith could have kept the car from hitting the massive pothole, he would have won this race.
