Last Updated: January 11, 2021 Are cars in NASCAR painted or wrapped?
That depends on the driver, the team, and the race. According to JTG Daugherty Racing, of the 36 races last season, only ten races featured a wrapped car. Wrapping a car is a quick way to make changes to the look of a car, but it tends to be more expensive and adds additional weight. https://www.reddit.com/r/NASCAR/comments/2korj4/some_teams_still_paint_there_cars_jimmie_johnsons/

What NASCAR tracks are in North Carolina?
North Carolina is home to the Charlotte Motor Speedway, but the state’s NASCAR roots go much deeper. The now-closed North Wilkesboro Speedway hosted the final race of the inaugural NASCAR season in 1949. Jeff Gordon won the last NASCAR event ever held there in 1996. https://www.mrn.com/

Which NASCAR Track is the Biggest?
Everyone knows that everything’s bigger in Texas! Texas Motor Speedway can accommodate nearly 182,000 fans. However, bigger ain’t necessarily biggest. Probably still best not to mention to the folks at TMS that Indy can hold over 250,000. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_motor_racing_venues_by_capacity
