NASCAR is Reviving This Historic Short Track (Almost Probably Definitely )

[@harnesshouse]

A lot of the people who live next to the track moved there, then complained about the noise, and got the Fair Board to limit the number of races per year. So 10 years ago there were about 22 race weekends; now they're doing good to have 6. And I'm glad you mentioned the Fair Board. They're somewhat of a wild card. They screwed up in 1984 when they told NASCAR to take a hike. Bob Harmon was able to bring NASCAR back in 1995 for the Busch Series and the Truck Series (one of the best Truck Series races I've ever seen was held there, and because it was rain delayed, CBS didn't broadcast it). And I wouldn't put it past them to screw up this deal.

Hot take: NASCAR will be back at Nashville Fairgrounds AND North Wilkesboro in the next 10 years. Wilkesboro is less likely, but anytime Dale Jr. gets behind something, it seems to get alot of attention and consideration.

[@TightInLooseOff]

I could see something happening with Wilkesboro. Would just need to be the right deal.

NASCAR Fans: “We want North Wilkesboro and Rockingham back” NASCAR: “What was that, Nashville Fairgrounds?” NASCAR Fans: “well yeah that too”

[@captainnebulous2918]

Rockingham is a possibility. North Wilkesboro is not. But I like Nashville better than both of those tracks anyway Personally my favorite paved half miles are/were Myrtle Beach and Winchester. So those would be my dream Cup races lol Does the Myrtle Beach track even exist anymore?

[@TightInLooseOff]

Myrtle Beach was sold and closed last year. The grandstands were torn down last September. I’m not sure if they got to the surface or not yet.

@@TightInLooseOff sadly everything is gone and they are starting to build houses there

Awesome. Would love to see NASCAR here within the decade.

NASCAR could get rid of a road course road and put that race in Nashville fairgrounds

[@DankWilliams_Jr.]

Very excited, love the hat

[@JustinPetrowski]

Yes. Yes. Yes. All Star Weekend at NFS 💯

[@ThRifTeDmUsIc]

Give up the 2nd Kansas date

[@captainnebulous2918]

I'd rather see one less Daytona or Talladega race. The less "plate" races, the better.

[@michaelbryant7377]

That's great. I'd love to see some older tracks brought back from the dead.

Pittsburgh playground in too small for NASCAR to return

[@AlexPomeroy13]

That is a awesome

[@davidaroach895]

Fairgrounds are too small for a race track for NASCAR probably Craftsman truck series yes but NASCAR no

[@phouse8manable]

They wouldn’t commit this kind of money if they weren’t getting Cup Series
