The first Darlington Southern 500 after the 1953 rebuild that increased speed and passing.

Note several good shots of the big pedestrian walkover bridge to the infield.

14 makes of cars.

A shirtless Junior Johnson plays fireman after his crash.

A few hilarious sound effects but gorgeous color film footage.
