Use NSValue, like so:

+(void)method1:(SEL)selector {
    NSValue *selectorValue = [NSValue value:&selector withObjCType:@encode(SEL)];
    [NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:@selector(method2:) 
                             toTarget:self 
                           withObject:selectorValue];
}

NSValue is intended as an object-wrapper for arbitrary non-object types.
