Sunday 15th October 1950
The seventeenth race of the 1950 season was run at Martinsville Speedway in Martinsville, Virginia, a race now regarded as the second edition of the Old Dominion 500 (the distance changed after the track was paved in 1955 from 200 to 400, and then 500 laps). Fonty Flock won the pole. This race was team owner Junie Donlavey’s first career start, fielding an Oldsmobile driven by Runt Harris.
