Full with rich racing history, Myrtle Beach Speedway has been the training grounds for some of NASCAR’s biggest stars including Dale Earnhardt Jr and Jeff Gordon. Over the years, all four generations of Pettys (Lee, Richard, Kyle, and Adam) and three generations of Earnhardts (Ralph, Dale Sr., and Dale Jr./Kelley/L.W. Miller III) have taken the green flag at this iconic track as the Winston Cup NASCAR Cup Series (Monster Energy) Race 1958 – 1965 & the Busch Series Race ( Xfinity Series) 1988 – 2000.
Today, Myrtle Beach Speedway remains alive with a full NASCAR Race Season as part of NASCAR Home Tracks since 2012 and gained the reputation for the largest car counts in the south east, seen consecutively each Week during the Saturday night NASCAR Racing Series, February – November.
