Things to Do

Motorsports & Racing

Racing's roots run deep in North Carolina. The sport started here when bootleggers souped up their cars to outrun the law - and then began racing one another. Those days are gone, but the legacy remains at the Coca-Cola 600, NASCAR Hall of Fame, racing schools, team shops and motorsports museums.

Where Racing Was Born

If you feel most alive when the engines roar and the pavement blurs, North Carolina’s racing scene will have you feeling right at home.
