Race #32
The NASCAR Convertible Series made their 32nd stop of 1956 at the Hickory Speedway, in Hickory, North Carolina.
Jimmy Massey led a field of twenty four drivers to the green as for the second time in series history drivers raced at the 0.400 mile short track, but unlike the previous event earlier in the season, this visit was on a new pavement and in front of a crowd of five thousand people. Massey's stay up front would last only ten laps before Gwyn Staley would swap the lead with Massey before championship contender Bob Welborn would make his way into the lead. Curtis Turner, who was looking for his sixth win in a row, but starting in the back would make that nearly impossible as he had to work his way up through the field and only cracked the top ten around the halfway mark.
Welborn would dominate much of the day but Jimmie Lewallen, who was driving a car owned by Welborn, would challenge him for the lead allowing for a new challenger to take advantage. Bob Beck, who was making his sixth career start, would take advantage of the dueling drivers and would take the lead late in the race and would go on to score his first career win as well as ending the dominating performance of Curtis Turner.
Other Noticeables:
Bob Beck scored his 1st win of the year,
Beck led 1 time for 31 laps, including the final 31 laps,
It was the 1st win of his career in the NASCAR Convertible Series in his 6th career start,
Billy Carden(6th) and Bill Eubanks(23rd) made their NASCAR Convertible Series debuts,
Bob Welborn, who finished 2nd, became the new points leader, leading Don Oldenberg by 6 points

Race #33
The NASCAR Convertible Series made their 33rd stop of 1956 at the Charlotte Fairgrounds, in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Jimmy Massey led the field to the green for the third time in his career and the second in a row, but it would be rookie Billy Carden who would make the pass for the lead in Turn 2 and would go on to lead the first lap. A field of only twenty one drivers drew 7,200 fans in attendance as everyone gave each other room on the half mile track as Carden would lead for much of the early half of the race but he would be involved in a wreck just after making pit stops that would knock new points leader Bob Welborn out of the race.
Art Binkley would assume the lead and he would lead for much of the remaining laps, but Mel Larson would work his way back into the lead shortly before the final caution came out. With the green back out, Larson would be on defense for the final twenty laps and he would hold on for his first career win in NASCAR.
Other Noticeables:
Mel Larson scored his 1st win of the year,
Larson led 2 times for 33 laps, including the final 27 laps,
It was the 1st win of his career in the NASCAR Convertible Series in his 30th career start,
Tony Bigelow(5th) and Don Corley(19th) made their NASCAR Convertible Series debuts,
