Herman Beam - Daytona Intl Speedway 1963

DAYTONA BEACH, FL — 1963: Driving his own Ford, Herman Beam ran both NASCAR Cup races at Daytona International Speedway during the season, finishing 24th in the Daytona 500 and 13th in the Firecracker 400. Beam earned the nickname “Turtle” during his career because his idea was to finish races rather than run hard and risk a crash or mechanical failure. That led Beam to a NASCAR Cup record that still stands today: from 1961 through 1963, Beam was still running at the finish of 84 consecutive Cup races.
