History
Dale Earnhardt Sr., Dale Earnhardt Jr., Cale Yarborough, Darrell Waltrip, Terry Labonte, Geoff Bodine, Bobby Allison, Tony Stewart, Ken Schrader and Benny Parsons are among the many stars that have competed at South Boston Speedway over the years. Parsons scored his first career NASCAR Grand National (NASCAR Cup Series) win at South Boston Speedway when the track hosted its last NASCAR Grand National (NASCAR Cup Series) race in 1971.

Waltrip was a winner at South Boston Speedway while competing in NASCAR Late Model Sportsman races. Bodine cut his teeth in racing full bodied stock cars when he came South off of the NASCAR Modified circuit in 1981 to drive for Emanuel Zervakis of Richmond. The former NASCAR Modified driver won nine of 11 NASCAR Late Model Sportsman events and went on to win the South Boston Speedway title that season. He used that experience to vault his way onto the NASCAR Winston Cup Series tour.

In the early 1970's when the NASCAR Grand American Series was popular, drivers such as the late Dwayne "Tiny" Lund, Pete Hamilton, Jim Paschal, Frank Sessoms, and T.C. Hunt competed on the South Boston Speedway oval.

While those drivers have carved their names deep into the record scrolls of the South Boston Speedway and the NASCAR record books, perhaps there is no name that is more familiar to South Boston Speedway fans than that of the late Ray Hendrick.

Hendrick, a legendary driver known for his hard charging driving style, recorded hundreds of wins at the South Boston Speedway during his storied career, many of them coming when he was piloting the famous winged number 11 Modified coupe that was fielded by Jack Tant and Clayton Mitchell.

The Richmond, Virginia resident won five track championships at the South Boston Speedway, four of them while competing in the NASCAR Modified division, and one in the NASCAR Late Model Sportsman division.

Over the years, South Boston Speedway has been a breeding ground for a number of NASCAR stars. South Boston natives Jeff Burton and Ward Burton cut their racing teeth competing in the NASCAR Late Model Stock Car Division at South Boston Speedway. In their early years, the Burtons became the only brothers to win the South Boston Speedway Most Popular Driver Award. Ward Burton became the first Virginian to win the Daytona 500 when he won “The Great American Race” in 2002.
