SCSCS Goes to the Beach; Inaugural Carteret County Speedway Visit up Next

Statesville, North Carolina (June 3, 2026) – The first of two maiden trips to tracks within the Tar Heel state during the month of June for the Super Cup Stock Car Series takes place this Saturday.  Carteret County Speedway is only minutes from the Crystal Coast and competitors and their families have been making beach plans around nearby Emerald Isle in addition to the action that is going to take place on the 4/10-mile oval on race day.

Dubbed “America’s Nicest Short Track”, the facility located in Swansboro, North Carolina opened its current layout in 2015 featuring a full-service restaurant in the infield, adjacent campground, and decorative touches all over to be seen. Challenges will also be presented to race teams navigating the extremely flat two-degree banking in the corners.

Points leader Chrissy Wallace is the only known series regular with prior experience at Carteret County, finishing in the top five there with another series in the past.  Drivers closest in the points such as Winston-Salem, North Carolina resident Damian Payton and Renick, West Virginia’s Harvey Harrison will look to adapt quickly with the handling of their cars to a unique set of track characteristics.

Multiple teams may arrive early and take advantage of the optional practice session being offered on Friday from 4:00 through 7:00 p.m. at a low price of $40 per car and driver with no charge for crew members or spectators.  On race day, as part of the “School’s Out” themed event, spectator gates open at 5:00 p.m. in time for qualifying with a driver meet and greet for fans scheduled for 6:00 p.m.

The first green flag flies at 7:00 p.m., including twin races for the Super Cup Stock Car Series ready to put on a show.  An exciting variety is offered during the evening’s racing program, additionally featuring Champ Karts, Bombers, four-cylinder U-Cars, and the classic East Coast Flathead Ford organization.  All festivities will be streamed live for Ultra Broadcastingsubscribers.

General admission is $15 with discounts available at the gate for active duty and retired military.  Bringing the entire family is encouraged, as not only are kids ages 6-10 admitted for $5 with free admission for kids 5 and under, but during intermission there is opportunity for them to participate or root on their peers in the “Juice Box” races.
