Jarrett Eyes Daytona Speed Record With Fewer Cautions
Ned Jarrett predicts the 1965 Daytona 500 could average near 160 mph if fewer caution flags slow the race. He notes the 50 lap average exceeded 168 mph and says the yellow flag reduced top speeds. Lee Petty will not start at Daytona, while Richard Petty and Jim Paschal will attend. Chrysler hemi rumors spark continued speculation about reinstatement, with Mexico testing denied by Chrysler officials. John Holman of Holman Moody faced a busy day in Los Angeles, briefly interrupted by elevator trouble.
