1961 Buddy Shuman 250
The ''1961 Buddy Shuman 250'' was a NASCAR Grand National Series (now Sprint Cup Series) event that was held on September 8, 1961 at Hickory Speedway in Hickory, North Carolina.
==Summary==
Two hundred and fifty-two laps were accomplished on a dirt track spanning .〔〔 The race took one hour and twenty-eight minutes to complete〔 (the approximate length of three modern 30-minute sitcoms aired simultaneously). The pole position speed achieved by eventual winner Rex White was .〔 Jack Smith would become the eventual second-place finished after being outlapped by White in front of 10500 live spectators.〔 Two cautions were given out of an undetermined length of laps. Junior Johnson would crash on lap 58 in his 1961 Pontiac Catalina machine while the winning vehicle would be classified as a Chevrolet with a 1961 model year〔〔 (presumably a Bel Air). Being a modest race on a short dirt track, the highest prize that was awarded at the time was $900 ($ in current U.S. dollars).〔
A young Richard Petty (being only 24 years old during this race) would finish in 17th place due to issues with his vehicle's rear end on lap 102.〔〔〔 The entire 20-car field was made up of American-born males.〔
The race car drivers still had to commute to the races using the same stock cars that competed in a typical weekend's race through a policy of homologation (and under their own power). This policy was in effect until roughly 1975. By 1980, NASCAR had completely stopped tracking the year model of all the vehicles and most teams did not take stock cars to the track under their own power any more.
