North Wilkesboro Speedway's FIRST Open House! Historic NASCAR Race Track Has a Crowd Again!

What happens here

As the day progresses and the sun begins to set, several vintage race cars, including a black 1940 Ford Coupe, a rusty 'Cotton Owens 70' car, a light blue 'Johnny Murphy 17' car, a white 'Ed Miller 130' car, and others with numbers like 5, 10, 52, and 241, start their engines. These classic vehicles, some with distinct flathead engine sounds and long headers, slowly parade through the pit area. The presenter points out former NASCAR driver Dink Widenhouse sitting in a chair, seemingly unfazed by the activity around him.

Goal: Witness vintage race cars in action
