The Throwback 276 is a super late model event. The race is sanctioned by the CARS Tour. A traveling short track asphalt series. A side-note, the series has developed an old school logo to go along with the event promotion. The new retro CARS Tour logo can be seen below.

It’s the inagural Hickory Motor Speedway throwback weekend and it all starts today. The green flag will drop tonight at 8PM eastern time.
