The NASCAR Cup Series returns to North Wilkesboro Speedway, the 0.625-mile short track tucked into the North Carolina foothills that sat dormant for a quarter century before NASCAR brought it back. Short-track racing means contact, tempers, and a beat-and-bang style that the mile-and-a-halves cannot deliver. Sunday night under the lights, with the field running door-to-door for 400 laps.
Watch for tire fall-off through the opening stage on the old asphalt, the short-pit strategy splits in Stage 2, and the inevitable late-race cautions that bunch the field for a green-white-checkered finish. Kyle Larson and the Hendrick cars typically arrive with short-track speed, Denny Hamlin and Joe Gibbs Racing rarely miss here, and the Trackhouse cars of Ross Chastain and Daniel Suárez tend to make their presence felt when bumpers start swapping paint. Track position is everything when passing is this hard.
