This weekend, we head to North Wilkesboro Speedway for the Window World 450. The race is Sunday at 7pm ET on TNT. Like I mentioned last week, there will be no live show this weekend. For the first time since 1996, North Wilkesboro Speedway will host a points-paying Cup Series race. North Wilkesboro has hosted the All-Star race the last 3 seasons. After the 2023 All-Star race, the track was repaved. We saw multiple groves last season, but it was tough to pass the leader. I expect this weekend to be the same. North Wilkesboro speedway is a unique .625-mile oval. I wouldn’t say there is a perfect comp, but I’ll be using data from Phoenix, Martinsville, New Hampshire, Iowa, and Richmond. I’ll be using practice, recent track data, track comp data, 2026 speed, and a few other things when building lineups this weekend.
