North Carolina speedway loses partnerships after owner's 'Bubba rope' post

STOKES COUNTY, N.C. -- A North Carolina racetrack has lost some partnerships after its owner advertised “Bubba Rope” for sale online days after NASCAR said a noose had been found in the garage stall of Bubba Wallace, the top series’ only Black driver.

A concrete company and a driver series ended their partnerships Friday, June 26 with the half-mile, dirt track 311 Speedway in Stokes County, the Winston-Salem Journal reported.
