In a field featuring NASCAR Cup Series stars, Bowman-Gray Stadium champions and more than 30 other challengers, Matt Hirschman emerged victorious in the Brushy Mountain Powersports 150 Saturday night at North Wilkesboro Speedway. It was announced Thursday the track would be repaved prior to the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series All-Star Race on May 19, making the Whelen Modified Tour event the final race on the 42-year-old asphalt. The win was especially important to Hirschman, who was making his first Whelen Modified Tour start since suffering a broken arm from a crash in August. Following Saturday’s event, just two events remain in the 2023 Whelen Modified Tour season; Oct. 8 at Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park in Connecticut and Oct. 26 at Virginia’s Martinsville Speedway. Both races can be streamed live on FloSports.
