Take A Great Look Inside The North Carolina Motorsports Hall Of Fame – Incredible Cars And History

(Photos by Joe Grippo) – We swear, when Joe Grippo went to North Carolina he visited every cool place that there was to visit including the North Carolina Motorsports Hall Of Fame. Notice what we said. This is not the NASCAR hall of fame this is the North Carolina Motorsports Hall Of Fame which means that there is everything from stock cars to open wheelers and drag machines in there as well. While California gets lots of credit (and deservedly so) for being a motorsports mecca through its history, we’d argue that over the course of the last 50 years, that title is way more appropriately bestowed on the Carolinas. There are dozens of drag strips, probably three times that many circle tracks, and shops/fabricators/talent in every freaking direction.

On our recent visit to Mooresville, we were stunned by what we saw with respect to the industry to racing and hot rodding in North Carolina. It blew everything we had ever seen in other parts of the country completely and utterly out of the water. This hall of fame does a spectacular job at telling the story of how that came to be, why it came to be, and what the future looks like.

The North Carolina Motorsports Hall of Fame is an incredible place and Joe Grippo thankfully gives us an inside tour through this gallery of photos. Awesome stuff!
