First NASCAR win for a car #11, it would become one of the most
successful numbers in the sport's history.

Course used the road course front stretch and pit road with two sharp
corners connecting them. Yes it was a modified oval using a road course

Why did half of the field have numbers with "N" after them?

I'm not sure, but my first thought would be that they were from some
"north" series...perhaps?

I think it stood for National. This event would have also counted as a
Pacific Coast Series race, and I think those with Ns were running under
Cup sanction. Or maybe it's the other way around. I dunno.

It was for Northwest. This designation lasted through the 1960's. I have
never been able to find out if they were connected to the NASCAR
Northwest Late Model series but am still researching to find out.

@11 ...Yes, actually. I did some cross referencing and it does indeed
refer to Northwest. All drivers with that designation come from the
Northwest.

I also have no clue if there's any connection. Maybe there was a
'Northwest' subchampionship, I'm not sure.

To #5, do you mean that the pit road was used for part of the course ?

From what I have read pit road was the back stretch. The cars ran
opposite of the way they ran the road course so the cars would run up
the front stretch turn at the entrance to pit road and run down pit
road. The turns were flat and tight. The pits were located in the
paddock. The road racers said it looked odd with skid marks on the
straight away and pit road going the opposite direction.

So is this a road course or a short track or both?

We, he might have started in the Northwest, but Ed Negre ended up about
2 miles from my house as a kid in Concord NC.

4 top-5s in 338 starts......and most of those with only 20 cars in the
field.
