The Tyson Holly Farms 400 was a NASCAR Winston Cup Series (now Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series) stock car race held annually from 1949 to 1996 at the North Wilkesboro Speedway in Wilkes County, North Carolina. It was the second of two Winston Cup Series races held annually (with the springtime First Union 400) at North Wilkesboro Speedway before the track was abandoned in 1996. The race was normally held in late September or early October. The race holds the distinction of being the last time a race winner finished at least a lap ahead of the rest of the field (1994, Geoff Bodine won by 1 lap over Terry Labonte).
