Weekend Schedule

The 2024 NASCAR All Star Race and All Star Open will return to North Wilkesboro Speedway.  The track last hosted the NASCAR Cup Series in 1996, and was shut down following the September race of that year.  In 2021 and 2022, revitalization efforts were led to bring racing back to the speedway, and the track hosted the CARS Tour in August of 2022.  Following that event, NASCAR announced that the 2023 All Star Race would return to the facility.  The format for this event will have 2, 60 lap heats, to set the field.  Then the All Star Open will be a 100 lap event, with a break around lap 40.  The top 2 finishers from the Open, and the Fan Vote winner, will transfer to the All Star Race.  The All Star Race will be a 200-lap event with a competition break around lap 100, with the winner taking home the $1 million prize.
