Interesting shot in the August 1961 issue of Hot Rod
There is coverage of the World 600 race from Charlotte.
On page 83 is the #31 '61 Lark on the inside lane
with 195HP emblazoned on the hood.In the outside
lane is a Pontiac with 368(?)HP on the hood.The caption
reads;
"Lone Studebaker racing in NASCAR competition looks
mighty small against larger Pontiac.Studes size was
matched by speed;it was much slower than most other cars."
I cannot read the drivers name.This may have been covered
before but I found it interesting.
