1961 Darlington Southern 500

Nelson Stacy and Marvin Panch (relief driving for Fireball Roberts) battle for the win during the 1961 Darlington Southern 500. This was the first Southern 500 with a pit road wall. It was constructed following Bobby Johns crash in the 1960 Southern 500 that killed crew-chief Paul McDuffie, mechanic Charles Sweatlund, and Nascar inspector Joe Taylor.

The manufactured excitement of the voice-over talent is great.

[@extramile150]

These 30-minutes or less NascarAllOut flashbacks are great. Thanks for posting these gems.

Another great Darlington race now finally surfaced, very intense and skilled driving from all and a great win for Nelson Stacey, superb post!

i saw it on a channel

[@Pothead4204lyfe]

It'd be awesome if they put this into a nascar video game you can race from the 50s into present day along with trackable statistics and maybe some out of car gameplay and choices to make would be hand down the best racing game ever made

Is there anybody else out there who can hear Merle Haggard off in the distance singing:
"Is the best of the free life
behind us now
Are the good times really over for good?"

Love it!

[@Slimjim260]

Love the pace car

[@gailurge3301]

Didn't work out much for Fireball Roberts cuz it was Nelson Stacy that was on fire.

[@1979cl1]

Roberts made the mistake not to pit for fresh tires, if he wasn't to make that bad decision, Nelson would still be breathing smoke.

[@Slimjim260]

Music sounds like the movie creature from the black lagoon

The Southern "500" was once NASCAR's biggest event, but even back in 1961, it had been eclipsed in importance by the Daytona "500".

[@tamtam21801]

Naw. *1961 World 600*

[@Slimjim260]

Look at the guardrail posts, hit one of them just right, and you’re dead!!!

[@Slimjim260]

61Starliner!

[@8HumblePie]

20:13 Oh Wow! Haven’t seen a man breathing Torch Oyxgen since my Grandfather passed away thats Some Smokey/ Fireball infield Medical care ⚠️❤️‍🩹

[@leslieforan1334]

I used to work for a company based in
Darlington. It is good to see an event where people were not intimidated to
proudly display the Confederate flag.

...everything has to be "politically correct" these days...

[@jpalberthoward9]

That's because it wasn't necessary to apologize for your own existence, or feel guilt and shame over something that you didn't even do. The only snowflakes they had fell from the sky in the winter.

[@turgid_member8717]

The confederate flag is a participation trophy. Y'all lost, get over it and fly the REAL American flag.

[@leahryan5560]

You mean the flag of losers?

[@Archangel_158]

Try hoisting those Stars and Bars these days at Charlotte… such a better time…

[@Diesel257]

What was the "spinning car" sound? 😂

[@bigcheeezzz7135]
