CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Former President Donald Trump plans on making it to the Coca-Cola 600 this Memorial Day weekend, according to Charlotte Motor Speedway.

The race at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, near Charlotte starts at 6 p.m. Sunday.

He would be the first current or former president to attend it, and his first race since serving as the grand marshal at the Daytona 500 in 2020.

North Carolina is a key battleground state this year as the general election in November inches closer. Both former President Trump and President Joe Biden have been to the Tar Heel state in recent months, campaigning for the public’s vote.

This also marks the same weekend as the Republican Party’s annual convention in Greensboro.

North Carolina natives, Chairman Michael Whatley and co-chair Lara Trump, are expected to speak, but it’s not clear if the former president will make an appearance.

The Coca-Cola 600 is widely considered one of the four biggest races in the sport. In addition to it, the other three races are the Brickyard 400, Daytona 500 and Southern 500 held at Darlington Raceway in South Carolina.
