Photo - 1957 NASCAR

From another forum, I thought this was a really neat photo.
1st Row:
#98 is Marvin Panch/DePaolo Engineering Ford
#22 is Fireball Roberts/DePaolo Engineering Ford

2nd Row:
#87 is Buck Baker/SEDCO Black Widow
#17 is Jim Paschal/Bill Stroppe Mercury

3rd Row
#99 is Curtis Turner/DePaolo Engineering Ford
#47 is Jack Smith/SEDCO Black Widow

4th Row:
#46 is Speedy Thompson/SEDCO Black Widow
# 8 is Ralph Moody/DePaolo Engineering Ford

5th Row:
#42 is Lee Petty/Petty Enterprises '57 Olds
#14 is Billy Myers/Bill Stroppe '57 Merc

It was the 8th race of the '57 GN season at Asheville-Weaverville, NC speedway on 3/31/57. Buck Baker won the race, Speedy Thompson was 2nd and Jim Paschal finised 3rd.
