Race #29
The NASCAR Convertible Series made their 29th stop of 1956 at the Ft. Wayne Speedway, in Ft. Wayne, Indiana.
Glen Wood led a field of twenty drivers to the green but it would be Curtis Turner who would get a great jump on the outside and would quickly take the lead in Turn 1. Picking where he left off the past two races, Turner once again dominated the race, losing the lead only once when he lost a lap for pitting due to a flat tire, but was able to gain the lap and the lead back in less then ten laps due to a caution and from that point on Turner was unchallenged, and would easily go on and scored his third win in a row, and his eighth win of the season.
Other Noticeables:
Curis Turner scored his 8th win of the year and third in a row,
Turner led 2 times for 148 laps, including the final 102 laps,
It was the 8th win of his career in the NASCAR Convertible Series and his first since Lincoln; 1 race ago,
