NASCAR Scene (originally Grand National Scene and later Winston Cup Scene) was a weekly magazine about NASCARstock car racing. It was established in North Carolina in 1976 and lasted until January 2010, making it one of the oldest NASCAR-specific publications at the time of this final issue. NASCAR Scene had a sister publication, NASCAR Illustrated, a monthly NASCAR lifestyle magazine, that was published until August 2016.
NASCAR Scene announced it would cease its weekly publication on January 5, 2010, terminating the employment of most of its editorial staff the same day. Notable writers let go included Jeff Gluck, Steve Waid, Mike Hembree, Lee Montgomery, Rea White, Jared Turner, and Art Weinstein. The last issue was published in December 2009. Much of the content in Scene was merged into NASCAR Illustrated, which was enhanced with additional coverage Nationwide Series and Camping World Truck Series.

In celebration of the annual Throwback Weekend, the magazine featured original commentary from Rick Houston, Steve Waid, Deb Williams, Jeff Owens, and Kenny Bruce, along with actual archived Scene results from the publication.
