Historical Note
Now defunct, the Metrolina Speedway was established in Charlotte, North Carolina, soon after the Metrolina Expo Trade Center was created in 1960. The track never hosted any Sprint Cup events, though it was the site of several important secondary NASCAR events after the track was paved for a short time in the early 1970s.
