The Clash has a new name!
The Busch Light Clash is now the Cook Out Clash.
The event set to run February 2 at Bowman Gray Stadium is a sell out!’
The Clash mark the first time that NASCAR will run a race at the iconic track since 1971.
While the main event is set for February 2, there are also events scheduled for Saturday, February 1. The Modified Division will run the invitation only Madhouse Classic exhibition race and there will be some track activity from the Cup Series drivers.
Project Lead for the NASCAR Clash Justin Swilling spoke on the event saying, “the sellout of The Clash at Bowman Gray Stadium speaks volumes about the monumental nature of the event at this historic venue. We’re honored to bring such an incredible race weekend to Winston-Salem that will provide an opportunity to place the stars of Bowman Gray Stadium’s Modified Division in the national spotlight.”
This year The Clash is introducing a “Fan’s Challenge” where the top four qualifiers will have the option of moving back to the back of the field and can win a big pay out bonus if they can find their way back to their original starting spot…or higher.
