The Truck and Cup series will be racing Saturday at North Wilkesboro Speedway as the 0.625-mile oval gets tuned up for Sunday’s All-Star Race. The trucks will occupy a roughly six-hour window beginning with practice at 9:35 a.m. and immediately followed by qualifying at the track in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina.

The final yellow flag bunched the Cup Series field late in the All-Star Race, and a decision led Sunday night’s winner to victory.

The on-track action began with the All-Star Open, a 100-lap last-chance qualifier for 18 drivers. Carson Hocevar won the Open, with John Hunter Nemechek finishing second and earning an All-Star spot as well. Noah Gragson won the All-Star fan vote to take the 23rd and final spot.

Craig Lutz survived a chaotic afternoon at North Wilkesboro Speedway on Sunday to earn his first victory since the 2022 season.

An eye-watering $100,000 prize was up for grabs during the Pit Crew Challenge on Friday, as part of the NASCAR All-Star race weekend at North Wilkesboro. Michael McDowell's No. 71 Spire Motorsports pit crew bagged the cash for changing all four tires in just 12.587 seconds.

Set to host its third consecutive All-Star Race, the North Carolina NASCAR track is something of a “resto-mod.”

Entering North Wilkesboro as the defending Truck race winner, Corey Heim must battle Kyle Busch to repeat on Saturday (1:30 p.m. ET, FS1).
