Columbus Speedway - Cup Series Race Winners

Columbus Speedway opened in June of 1948 as a dirt half-mile, high-banked oval. This was mainly due to a freak accident that saw one spectator lose a leg to amputation in the hospital and the death of seven-year-old James Brannon. Even though the first NASCAR championship was decided at the track in November of 1948 people did not attend the races and the venue was closed.
