That will be the hardest ticket ever for a NASCAR event.

BTW, Junior deserves all the credit for making this even possible. Yes there were others involved but he's the one that has led the charge from Day 1 to bring Wilkesboro back to it's former glory. His influence in retirement trumps his driving days.

Make him the President of NASCAR w/the quickness. And I say that as a fan of Steve Phelps and the job he's done.

Dale Jr just raced there a few weeks ago and it was a full house. It’s very exciting. It was so sad to drive by the track the past 10 years. There were literally trees growing in the grand stands.

I was not a fan of his during his driving days as a Ford guy, but I'll be damned if he isn't just an incredible guy now. His podcast shows how cool and caring he really is.

It's official, North Wilkesboro will be the site for the All-Star Race in 2023. This comes as North Wilkesboro has been successfully hosting many racing events recently, including a CARS Tour late model race last week that Dale Jr. raced in.

NASCAR.com story.

It will be the first All Star race worth watching in a long time. I've been thinking for years they need to have it on a short track.

And that’s saying a lot.

I’m amazed how good he was in the booth from day one.
This past weekend he took over as the lead guy while Petty and Jarrett were there for stage 2.

The Race for the Championship series on USA Network I must admit is pretty good. I feel like if it were on Netflix it would be a hit.

Dale Jr Download is great. Look forward to it every week. No telling how good it would be if Mike Davis didn’t interject himself. Dude is a total simp.

It should be cohosted by Kelley. Or TJ Majors if he weren’t on DBC.

Jr is fricking with everyone on twitter. If you got twitter, check out some of his tweets over the last hour.

Lol, he’s basically tweeting Kyle Busch to the 8 car and Kyle Busch to the 23 car.
