Episode Details

North Wilkesboro Speedway is roaring back with a high-stakes, 450-lap NASCAR Cup Series points race this Sunday — a return to its storied roots after decades away from the regular schedule. Grand marshal Rusty Wallace, a legend with deep ties to the track, is thrilled to see it back as a true points-paying event, not just an exhibition. The repaved, wider track now rewards daring driving up high — a shift that’s already sparked fierce competition from drivers like Kyle Larson and Christopher Bell, who called it one of the best short tracks he’s ever raced. With no infield tunnel to escape early trouble, every lap counts — and Austin Cindric’s tribute paint scheme to Wallace’s iconic Miller Genuine Draft car adds a nostalgic spark to the battle. Brakes will be tested, tempers will flare, and this could be one of the most intense short-track showdowns of the season.
