At the "Strictly Stock" race at the Daytona Beach and Road Course, the second female of NASCAR, Ethel Flock Mobley,  joined her racing brothers, Fonty, Tim and Bob Flock. It was the first event to feature a brother and a sister, and the only NASCAR event to feature four siblings. In her husband's 1948 Cadillac, Ethel not only finished in 11th place, but to her eternal delight defeated both Bob and Fonty.
