Engines roared at Charlotte Motor Speedway for the first time in 1960,
and the track has been home to some of NASCAR's greatest races and most
honored drivers ever since. Despite early challenges, Bruton Smith and
Humpy Wheeler took charge in 1975, and together sculpted one of the most
famous race tracks in America as host of the Coca-Cola 600 and the
Sprint All-Star Race. In 1992, the track became the first modern
speedway to host night racing and thousands of race fans watched their
favorite drivers swap paint under the North Carolina night sky. Get in
the groove with racing journalist Deb Williams as she traces the history
of the Charlotte Motor Speedway, with plenty of pit-stops along the way.
