Petty Breaks 170 MPH Barrier at Daytona

Richard Petty of Randleman North Carolina became the first stock car driver to exceed 170 mph at Daytona International Speedway. He posted 174.689 mph in the morning and nearly hit 175 mph in the afternoon while piloting a 1964 Plymouth on the 2.5 mile oval. Speedway officials said the afternoon clocking was possibly the fastest stock car time ever recorded. The run comes as drivers seek the pole for Saturday's 50 mile NASCAR event and a chance to beat the 64.005 mph speed record set last July.
