1961 World 600 from Charlotte Motor Speedway | 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.

🏁This was an excellent video, especially for way back then!🏁
The "colorized" races from the B&W era (before almost ANY color TV coverage of races) are just superb. This one in particular is special (first of 105 wins for "The Silver Fox", Lee Petty Engineering trying to keep the future "King" and company going with papa Lee still laying in the hospital. Also it's the final race for 3 time NASCAR champ Tim Flock).
Chris Economaki with the narration! He was the editor The National Speed Sport News and did race coverage for ABC's Wide World of Sports for years. For many, he was the voice of NASCAR events when they were distilled down to 20-25 minutes on Wide World of Sports. on Saturday afternoons.
Wow what a finish! 😮

Watched KZread clips from the 60 and 61 World 600's and listened to the transition of driver names. Lee Petty, Tom Pistone, Bob Wellborn, Jim Beauchamp, Speedy Thompson, the Flock Brothers, et al are giving way to David Pearson, Richard Petty, Fred Lorenzen, Junior Johnson, Fireball Roberts et al. The 50's give way to the 60's. The torch is passed.
I am a fan of Pontiacs. Those Catalinas were the preferred choice back in the early 60s.

The driver who lost a leg, from knee down, don't remember his name, but he made it back to racing and won many local races. Couldn't do Nascar due to a dispute about his accident here, until it got settled years later. That's a great story of perseverance itself, watched it on YT recently.
The guy at 8:08 and the number 46 car Is my dad’s friend’s great uncle Jack Smith. the friend of my dad is Jeremy Smith.
Petty's Plymouth looked like it was from the '40s compared to those Pontiacs.
I’d like to see the 2022 South Point 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on here because it was one of the best races in Nascar period since my best friend Archer watched it with me that day.

That's probably on the main NASCAR page. It's not old enough to be a classic. Hope you find it.

Why are these real classics so short if it's the full race? Is this just how long they were back then? Or is the full footage no longer available?

I believe they would record the full races but chop it up and present it as 20-30 minute presentation. The 1979 Daytona 500 was the first 500 mile race shown flag to flag. Full race broadcast didn't really start to become a thing until the 1980s.

The fake tire squealing and tom-tom drums ruin it for me.
That drum is very annoying.
Full race replay . . . 600 miles . . . in less than twenty minutes. You can't even stop lying to fans on something so innocuous. Please, don't strain your arm patting yourself on your back. 🙄
