To celebrate 75 years worth of memories, the legendary Wood Brothers Racing team will be celebrated throughout the summer with “Wood Brothers Wednesdays” on the NASCAR Channel.
Wood Brothers Racing has been around since 1950, when Glen and Leonard Wood teamed up to pioneer a legacy that has transcended time.
Glen was behind the wheel of their car at Bowman Gray Stadium in 1960 and took the Wood Brothers Racing team to Victory Lane for the first time. The team scored its 101st NASCAR Cup Series victory in 2025, when Josh Berry took the checkered flag at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Bookending those victories were triumphs everywhere from Daytona to Darlington to Rockingham and everywhere in between.
Twenty of NASCAR‘s 75 Greatest Drivers have piloted a car for the team throughout their storied history, one that is well worth celebrating.
This week kicks off with a jam-packed schedule on the NASCAR Channel, as the theme will both honor the 1960s and the team‘s history at Michigan International Speedway, the site of this weekend‘s NASCAR Cup Series race.

The 1991 Champion Spark Plug 400 at Michigan turned out to be an unforgettable weekend for two of the most well-respected families in NASCAR — the Woods and the Jarretts.
Dale Jarrett, who was piloting the No. 21 car for the Wood Brothers Racing team, captured his first career Cup victory in thrilling fashion as he held off Davey Allison at the line in a photo finish.

The third full race on the schedule Wednesday will be the 1976 Champion Spark Plug 400 at Michigan. This race saw David Pearson capture the victory for the Wood Brothers team, sweeping the races at the track that season.
