North Wilkesboro-Next Nascar Race On Dirt?

[Rajflyboy]

Gotta love the ufc for sticking to their sport and not jamming politics down our throats.

Yeah but they are teaching folks it’s ok to beat the hell out of each other 😂👎

I think the same way. Old school woopin has better outcome than the 9mm

One of the funniest things about the track is that now all of a sudden everyone loves it and was a season ticket holder. The track had to fail somehow. Where were all of these people when the track was failing? 🤔 Similar to Rockingham. People want to see it come back, but nobody was supporting it originally what would change?

I don't think that the track failed. What happened was that two men wanted the tracks cup dates and bought the track and split them, one to New Hampshire and one to Texas (i think). That is why it was shuttered.

Actually, in 1995, two families owned a 50/50 split of North Wilkesboro. Bruton Smith bought half the stock in North Wilkesboro and took one date to Texas Speedway. That same year, Bob Bahre bought the other half of the stock and took the other date to New Hampshire Speedway. Normally, NASCAR (Bill France, Jr.) frowned on buying tracks to get their dates, but looked the other way on this because the New England and Texas markets could get more fans than North Wilkesboro could hold. Always follow the money trail

Yep, and the track in new Hampshire stinks, and the other in Texas is another boring as heck 1 1/2. Yep, great idea, 2 rich dudes that own the place and could really care less about it.

I'm guessing you're new or weren't around back then??

FF. WRONG. It was explained before why north Wilks Boro went idle. 2 owners that became 50/50 share holders in the place only to move 1 date to Texas and the other to new hampshire
