At 600 miles , no other NASCAR race gets close to the length of the Coca Cola 600 .

The race was originally called the World 600 and ran its inaugural event in 1960 .

The first victor was Joe Lee Johnson in the No. 89 machine, but it was his last, winning the race by a margin of four laps.

Some of the first -time winners have gone on to become NASCAR legends.

David Reutimann won the 2009 Coke 600 in a rain-plagued race that was postponed due to bad weather.

Austin Dillon is the only driver on this list who is still competing at the Cup level.

Since Dillon 's win in 2017 , there have been no first -time winners in the Coke 600 .

Ty Ty Gibbs , the 2022 NASCAR Xfinity Series champion, is making his first career start in the race.

The 40 -car entry list for this year 's Coke 600 features 13 different drivers who have never won a Cup race.

Ryan Preece , Carson Hocevar and Noah Gragson are among those who have yet to win a race in NASCAR 's first -ever oval race.
