Increasing concern about weather for this weekends clash. I would expect an announcement in the coming days one way or the other.

Its a damn shame what Auto Club has turned into.....and includes what its not turned into. It sucked they were going to turn it into warehouses, etc. but the state its in now seems just as bad.

Hate seeing it

It's not going to get run. Clash should be at Daytona anyway...

It will be interesting to see what they do. Weather isn't looking good at all. I'd like to see the Clash go back to Daytona.

It is sad to see it like this. At this point I doubt there is ever a race there again. I don't see the short track ever being built.

I'm with you, I believe the short track plans get nixed

Was told that this was a high likelihood.

Someone just tweeted at me that the Clash should have been run at Wake County Speedway. Zero snow

That would be a disgrace. Maybe even worse than Bowman Gray… could you just imagine getting to tune in tomorrow to watch a 1:00 PM start at Daytona?!?

That's what I prefer. But WCS and BG are the same size so what's the difference if they are bound and determined to run it at a short track. And as late as they ran it they could have run it n Raleigh

All kidding aside, I am ready for the local short track racing to start. Side note: tip of the hat to the workers over there at Bowman Grey. I know they have their work cut out.

According to NASCAR insights, this coming up race could be one of the coldest in history. Richmond spring race in 1990 was 31 degrees. Monday's race time will be 30 degrees and then dipping into the 20's.

All for something that hardly anybody is going to watch to begin with... those cars on that track ain't racing.

They had to tweak the events in order to fit everything into one day. There are 38 cars trying to make the Clash.

They ditched the heat races and are going with qualifying results, with the top 20 making the race.

Then the remaining 18 cars will race in a 75-lap Last Chance Qualifuer race and 2 will move on to the Clash. There will also be one provisional driver.

That 75-lap LCQ will probably be a lot of action.

Almost, kind of sounds like they are actually listening to their fans again, huh?

Now. If we could just make that one simple fix to The Clash next year.

Would rather this be at Daytona but not a bad LCQ to get it started.

That was a fun LCQ. The 21 wins...48 and 2 also advance.

LCQ races never disappoint, no matter what class is running
