[[Watkins Glen International]], nicknamed "The Glen", is an [[automobile]] [[race track]] located in [[Watkins Glen, New York]], at the southern tip of [[Seneca Lake (New York)|Seneca Lake]]. The [[sports car racing]] facility is owned by the [[International Speedway Corporation]]. It was long known around the world as the home of the [[United States Grand Prix]], which it hosted for 20 consecutive years (1961–1980) but since 1948, it has been home to [[road racing]] of nearly every class, such as [[Formula One]], the [[World Sportscar Championship]], [[Trans-Am]], [[Can-Am]], the [[NASCAR]] [[Sprint Cup Series]], the [[International Motor Sports Association]] and the [[Verizon IndyCar Series]]. Initially, public roads in the village were used for the race course. In 1956, a permanent circuit for the race was built. In 1968, the race was extended to six hours, earning the nickname '''"[[6 Hours of Watkins Glen]]"'''. The circuit's current layout has more/less been the same since 1971, although a chicane was installed at the uphill esses in 1975 to slow cars through these corners, where there was a fatality during practice at the [[1973 United States Grand Prix]]. The chicane was removed in 1985, but another chicane called the '''"Inner Loop"''' was installed in 1992 after a fatal accident during the previous year's NASCAR Winston Cup event. The circuit is known as the Mecca of North American road racing and is a very popular venue among fans and drivers.

The 1964 The Glen 151.8 was a NASCAR Grand National Series event that was held on July 19, 1964, at Watkins Glen International in Watkins Glen, New York.

Background

[edit]

Watkins Glen International, nicknamed "The Glen", is a race track located in Watkins Glen, New York, at the southern tip of Seneca Lake. The sports car racing facility is owned by the International Speedway Corporation. It was long known around the world as the home of the United States Grand Prix, which it hosted for 20 consecutive years (1961–1980) but since 1948, it has been home to road racing of nearly every class, such as Formula One, the World Sportscar Championship, Trans-Am, Can-Am, the NASCAR Cup Series, the International Motor Sports Association and the IndyCar Series. Initially, public roads in the village were used for the race course. In 1956, a permanent circuit for the race was built. The circuit's current layout has more/less been the same since 1971, although a chicane was installed at the uphill esses in 1975 to slow cars through these corners, where there was a fatality during practice at the 1973 United States Grand Prix. The chicane was removed in 1985, but another chicane called the "Inner Loop" was installed in 1992 after a fatal accident during the previous year's NASCAR Winston Cup event. The circuit is known as the Mecca of North American road racing and is a very popular venue among fans and drivers.

Race report

[edit]

Five lead changes were made (consisting of Ned Jarrett, Darel Dieringer, Billy Wade, and Ned Jarrett).[2] After one hour and thirty-two minutes of racing, Billy Wade managed to defeat LeeRoy Yarbrough by six seconds in front of 10,000 live spectators (approximately 24% of the racetrack's modern capacity).[2] The total prize purse handed out for this racing event was $6,395 ($62,825 when inflation is taken into effect); Billy Wade received $1,400 of it ($13,754 when inflation is taken into effect) while Lee Petty received a meager $150 ($1,474 when inflation is taken into effect).[3]

Pete Boland would receive the last-place finish due to a brake problem on lap 2 of 66. The actual race spanned for 151.8 miles (244.3 km); with the pole position speed at 102.222 miles per hour (164.510 km/h) and the average race speed at 97.988 miles per hour (157.696 km/h).[2] All 26 of the drivers on the grid were American-born males.[2] Lee Petty would retire from NASCAR after this race.[4] From the next race onward, his son Richard would race alone. Bob Welborn would make his second-to-last NASCAR appearance at this racing event. Walt Hansgen would become the first road course ringer by being at this track three times. He would drive a 1964 Chevrolet Chevelle during this race after driving a Ford vehicle at a previous race.

Some of the more notable crew chiefs were Bud Moore, Mario Rossi, Louis Clements, Dale Inman, Vic Ballard and Jimmy Helms.[5]

The transition to purpose-built racecars began in the early 1960s and occurred gradually over that decade. Changes made to the sport by the late 1960s brought an end to the "strictly stock" vehicles of the 1950s.
