Could this be the 1957 Southern 500? The front row is Cotton Owens, Bobby Myers, and Curtis Turner. Also, that's Paul Godlsmith lined up in 6th in the other Smokey Yunick '57 Ford. The latest models in the photo are all 1957. In the '58 Southern 500, 1958 Fords were prevalent: Curtis Turner, Eddie Pagan, Joe Weatherly, Eddie Gray............

Ray, do you have any other photos of the '57 '500'? I've studied and researched this race, specifically, regarding the tragic Myers/Flock/Goldsmith crash. The only photos, that I'm aware, are those of (then) Darlington photographer, Tom Kincaid. There is a video of this incident, but I only 'caught' it on a 'Discovery Channel' documentary: "Real Hillbilly's" and have been unable to locate it, myself.
