One year after father Lee Petty protested (and won) Richard's first win, the King got a win that no one could protest.
Lee marched to track and NASCAR officials after the race and insisted a scoring error had been made that put his son at the top of the heap, when it was Lee who felt he should have been declared the rightful winner.
In his first full-time NASCAR season, and in the sixth race of the year, Richard went to victory lane at the Southern States Fairgrounds , a half-mile dirt track in Charlotte, on February 28, 1960.—the only two drivers to complete the entire 200 laps—and took home both his first checkered flag and an $800 winner’s check.Getty Images
