Change of plans ... Now they will open with racing on the Big Track!

In 2024 we can again experience the magic of the legendary Pennsboro Speedway, thanks to the amazing folks / crew at Racetrack Revival. In case you're wondering, this is the crew that brought iconic North Wilkesboro Speedway roaring back to life in 2022.

So how about some background on how this came to be?

We'll start with Dale Jr's teaser video Lost Speedways -- Behind the scenes: Pennsboro Raceway, posted to his Facebook Sept. 10, 2021.

However, Ryan Decker at Clarksburg-based WBOY knew about Junior's early trip to Pennsboro and decided to check out the Ritchie County track himself.
