Watch: Highlights From The CARS Tour At North Wilkesboro Speedway
The CARS Tour raced at North Wilkesboro Speedway for the second year in a row this past May. The CARS Tour was the headlining event of the “Racetrack Revival” in 2022 that spearheaded the return to glory that North Wilkesboro Speedway is now experiencing. CARS Tour champion Carson Kvapil won that first race in 2022, which also featured Dale Earnhardt Jr. in the field. Brenden “Butterbean” Queen won the CARS Tour race there earlier this year.
North Wilkesboro Speedway officials also announced that the track will be repaved ahead of the 2024 racing events. It is the first time the track will be repaved since 1981. This weekend’s NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour “Brushy Mountain Powersports 150” will be the final race on the historic pavement.
CARS Tour tickets will go on sale at 10 a.m. ET on October 5th.
