Then there's this mention in wikipedia:

NASCAR

The Nash Motor Company was the first manufacturer that actively supported
NASCAR <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NASCAR> racing. Ebenezer "Slick" Smith
drove an Ambassador in the September
24<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_24>,
1950 <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1950> NASCAR race at North Wilkesboro
Speedway <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Wilkesboro_Speedway>. (This was
the same car that Bill France had crashed in the Carrera Panamericana.)
Smith crashed midway through the race and finished 20th in the field of 26.

For the 1952 NASCAR season, other automakers became more involved. Nash
recruited and signed dynamic stars Curtis Turner and Johnny
Mantz<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Mantz>.
Curtis Turner won the 150-lap NASCAR Grand National race at Charlotte
Speedway <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlotte_Speedway> on April
1<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_1>,
1951 <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1951>. This is the only win for Nash in
NASCAR.[8] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nash_Ambassador#cite_note-7>



Well it's there somewhere, I just gotta stumble on it...
