Aug 14, 2022
The return of racing at North Wilkesboro Speedway has generated a ton of buzz during the month of August. The Racetrack Revival brought strong crowds and great racing to the historic venue, and there's still one more chance for fans to see the action on August 30-31.
During those two days, Dale Earnhardt, Jr. will be on track with the CARS Late Model Stock Car Tour, with a 125-lap feature race scheduled for Wednesday, August 31. Earnhardt, Jr. has played a pivotal role in racing's return to North Wilkesboro, a movement that saw renewed interest after he organized for a cleaning of the racing surface so that it could be scanned for iRacing.

In the new Dirty Mo Media video series "Roots & Revival," the spotlight is shined on the triumphant return of racing to North Wilkesboro Speedway. The latest episode focuses on the kickoff for the Racetrack Revival, when Tour-type Modifieds stormed around the 0.625-mile oval.
The first episode of the series focuses on Dale Earnhardt, Jr.'s test with JR Motorsports at North Wilkesboro in June. Earnhardt tested that day along with JR Motorsports drivers Josh Berry and Carson Kvapil to prepare for his start with the CARS Tour next week.
