more than $58,000 in prize
3 money waiting at the finish
;! line, several Firecracker 400
records are expected to be
- axed in the seventh annual
s running of the N A SCAR
d July 4th feature at the Day
e tona International Speedway,
e
Darel Dieringer's qualify
-2 ing mark of 172.678 milas per
hour will have a difficult
8 time of withstanding the all
out charge of such habitual
polesitters as A. J. Foyt and
Junior Johnson, plus the
challenge of a pair of Ply
mouth hemi-heads and Ray
Fox's ever inproving Chev
rolets ,and a horde of Fords,
j Mercury* and Dodges.
I The ra:«> record that is
f threatened is Foyt's mark of
y 151.451 m.p.h. set last year
when the Texas flash took
t the lead on' the last lap and
edged out Bobby Isaac at
i_ the finish line. Foyt is out
e to score back-to-back wins
d in the Firecracker 400 and
e provide positive proof that
e his vanquishing of the NAS
CAR STARB was no fluke.
Despite Foyt's internation
f. al reputation, and his vic
tory a year ago, the chances
•t are that Freddie Lorenzen,
a NASCAR's leading money
[. winner of the year, will go
>. to the starting line the fav
.. orite. Lorenzen has a gift lot
o winning the big ones. He
1. has already taken two of

it who will have the super
[. swift work of the Wood boys
it in the pits. Also liked is
Junior Johnson, the man who
stays in front, or is charg
ing that way, as long as
his machine holds out.
Fox's Chevrolets, with Lee
Roy Yarbrough and Bunkie
Blackburn at the wheels,
p should provide plenty of com
h petition, and the Firecracker

[. that they go the distance at
