[QUOTE="351stang, post: 16724415, member: 1355"] [I]Some more details for those that are interested.[/I] North Wilkesboro Speedway is a short track that held races in NASCAR's top three series, including 93 Winston Cup Series races. The track, a NASCAR original, operated from 1949, NASCAR's inception, until the track's closure in 1996. The speedway briefly reopened in 2010 and hosted several Stock Car Series races, including the now-defunct ASA Late Model Series, USARacing Pro Cup Series, and PASS Super Late Models, before closing again in the spring of 2011. The track is located on U.S. Route 421, about five miles east of the town of North Wilkesboro, North Carolina. It measured 0.625 miles (1.006 km) and featured a unique uphill backstretch and downhill front stretch. Breaking news, the track is getting rebuilt! North Carolina governor Roy Cooper signed a $25.9B budget into law for the state. Of that, $40 million is allocated to three racetracks. Racetracks in NC budget: Charlotte Motor Speedway, Rockingham Speedway and North Wilkesboro Speedway. $18 million of that budget is set for Wilkes County upgrades. Specifically, “to coordinate with relevant local government units for water and sewer and related infrastructure projects for service to the North Wilkesboro Speedway.” [/QUOTE]
