Herb,

I stand corrected.  I don't know what site I found the Chaparral info on. 
Nevertheless, I still didn't see a BN6 in the list of entrants.

This source indicates that Jim Hall was not even in the race, much less the
winner.

OK, I'll give him that, it's a "rare" 1959 BN6, although it's an odd way of
defining rarity in Healey models.  And I suppose being the first car out of
the parking lot after Jim Hall dusted the field constitutes "racing'  at the
Glen Sports Car Grand Prix? ;-)

Actually that number (249) is right for 1959 BN6s.
It's not significant because the same model was made in 58 as well.

The 355 BN7 is significant because there are only 355 tri-carb two- seat
3000s.
