Since its debut in 1985, the NASCAR All-Star Race has stood as one of the sport's most electrifying and prestigious events. Unlike regular-season races, this unique exhibition brings together past winners, champions, and fan-voted favorites to compete in a high-stakes, no-points showdown. It's a race that strips NASCAR down to its purest form - speed, strategy, and spectacle - all in pursuit of pride, glory, and a massive payday.
Over the decades, the All-Star Race has delivered countless unforgettable moments: daring es, photo finishes, and dramatic rivalries under the lights. Held at various iconic tracks such as Charlotte Motor Speedway, Bristol Motor Speedway, Texas Motor Speedway, and now North Wilkesboro, the event continues to evolve while maintaining its reputation as a celebration of NASCAR's finest. Winning it once is a badge of honor - winning it multiple times cements a driver's legacy.
This list honors every driver who has claimed victory in the All-Star Race, from legends like Dale Earnhardt and Jeff Gordon to modern stars such as Kyle Larson and Joey Logano. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to the sport, this year-by-year breakdown offers a look at the champions who have conquered one of NASCAR's most thrilling nights.
