North Wilkesboro Speedway Highway Marker Dedication!
Save the Speedway has set May 24th as the date for the highway marker dedication ceremony. More details will be provided as we get closer.
Highway Marker Approved!
We have recently received word that our application for a historical highway marker for North Wilkesboro Speedway has been approved. The application was submitted last fall, however a decision was postponed to determine proper verbage for the sign. At the most recent meeting the sign was approved with the following inscription:
"NORTH WILKESBORO SPEEDWAY"
Pioneering NASCAR dirt track. Built 1946; paved in 1958. Hosted sanc- tioned events, 1946-96. 5/8 mile oval 1/2 mi. E.
A dedication ceremony will be planned once the sign is in place. More details regarding this will be posted soon on our website - www.savethespeedway.net so keep checking back for updates.
