Description: This program and lineup are in very good condition with no major flaws beyond very light wear. It would be very hard to find better. Numerous pictures were taken to assist with the condition and content of the program and lineup. The 1961 Dixie 400 was held at Atlanta International Raceway on September 17th. Fireball Roberts would lead the 42-car field to the green flag in front of 30,000 fans. This race had a wild ending. Banjo Matthews had a 15-second lead with five laps to go but blew a motor. Fireball Roberts took the lead but ran out of gas with two laps to go. Bunkie Blackburn, driving relief for Junior Johnson, took the lead on the white flag lap but ran out of gas on the backstretch. David Pearson took the lead and would win the race after protesting the finish, which initially credited Johnson//Blackburn with the win. Officially finishing second was Junior Johnson, followed by Fireball Roberts, Jack Smith, and Richard Petty. Please review the other racing items I have listed. I will combine shipping and provide a refund on shipping charges for anything over cost. Thanks!
