NASCAR National Short Track Series
Stock Car Racing History
I was able to extract this race report about the July 1, 1962 race at Lincoln from The Evening Sun of Hanover PA. Based on car #2, sounds like Paschal won for car owner Cliff Stewart.
Jim Paschal Race Victor At Lincoln
Jim Paschal, High Point. N.C ace tooled his 1962 Pontiac to a new track record for the NASCAR late models at the Lincoln Speedway half-mile oval Saturday night. The racing veteran who has taken over sixth place in the Grand National Top Twenty point standings with 5,988 pushed his No. 2 car into a commanding lead at the start of the 100-lap feature that was run off without a caution flag. Paschal took the dirt oval's 100 laps in 37 minutes and 8 seconds as he averaged 80 m.p.h in setting the course mark.
The North Carolina lead foot took first heat honors as the late models attracted the largest crowd of the season to promoter Hilly Rife's plant. Wes Morgan, Fairfax, Va., and Ron Halquist, Stamford Conn. finished 2-3 in the heat running. Danbury. Conn. pilot Bobby Devine won the second heat with Washingtons Elmo Langley and Charleston. S.C. speedster Curtis Crider finishing in that order. Devine and Langley finished in second and third position in the main event. Nineteen late models were in the pits.
