NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt Jr. owns an exceptional 300-acre estate known as Dirty Mo Acres, valued at $5.2 million and situated in the heart of North Carolina’s renowned racing territory.

At the heart of Dirty Mo Acres is a meticulously constructed Wild West town named Whisky River, inspired by Willie Nelson’s movie set.

This town is equipped with a working saloon, a hotel boasting three rooms, and a variety of shops including a bank, barber shop, post office, pharmacy, sheriff’s office with an attached jail, chapel, and general store.

Wooden structures, repurposed from an old Mooresville, North Carolina mill, along with strategically placed mannequin cowboys and horses, enhance the town’s authentic ambiance.

Apart from the town, the estate is a haven for racing enthusiasts, featuring a dirt go-kart track and a treasure trove of over 100 wrecked race cars from drivers like Juan Pablo Montoya, Danica Patrick, Jeff Gordon, and Jimmie Johnson.

The property doesn’t stop at a Western town and a car graveyard; it also boasts a luxury garage named Dirty Dome, housing Earnhardt’s personal collection of cars, trophies, and memorabilia from his racing career.

This garage is also home to a basketball court, serving as the battleground for the “Dirty Mo Basketball League,” where Earnhardt and his friends compete.
