Most laps ever led in one race at Charlotte. Jimmie Johnson led 334 in
the 600 in 2004. Paschal is one of the most underrated drivers in NASCAR
history, even though he won 25 races.

If Jim had Petty or Holman-Moody, he would've won every race barring
mechanical problems.

The Tuscaloosa News

The 1967 World 600 is considered by many to be Paschal's greatest
performance. He had built a three-lap lead when he lost control of his
Plymouth and hit the wall on Lap 339 of 400. His crew patched up his
car, but he was back on the same lap as his challengers. Despite the
damage, he was able to hold off two hard-chargers, David Pearson and
Bobby Allison, to get the victory.

Hume actually rolled the car during the qualifier. The footage was used
in the movie Speedway, starring Elvis Presley.

To update #1 that record now belongs to Martin Truex Jr after he led 392
in 2017.

Paschal was in the middle of winning 3 races out of 4. The $28K payoff
dwarfed the other races for him that year.
