NORTH WILKESBORO, N.C. — To celebrate WFMY News 2 turning 75, we are opening the News 2 Vault.
We're only going back one year to May 2023 when racing fully returned to North Wilkesboro.
That was the day NASCAR hosted the All-Star Race at the North Wilkesboro Speedway. The famed track had been closed for almost three decades. But NASCAR announced they'd celebrate their 75th year with the all-star race and several days of events in Wilkesboro.
The race brought people from all over the country and the world to the Wilkesboro Speedway for a revival of racing in the area. Of course, we've seen that last year's success meant more this year.
The second All-Star weekend at North Wilkesboro Speedway ended last night with Joey Logano taking home the win.
