NASCAR postponed the Cook Out Clash at historic Bowman Gray Stadium to Wednesday night due to the effects of a winter storm in Winston-Salem, N.C.

The Clash had been scheduled to run Sunday night before initially being postponed to Monday due to the snowfall in the area.

The National Weather Service reported Winston-Salem received 8-10 inches of snow Saturday. The Charlotte area, which serves as the home base for most NASCAR Cup Series drivers and teams, got 11 inches, per local television affiliate WCNC.

NASCAR said a second postponement of the preseason exhibition to Wednesday at 6 p.m. ET was necessary “due to the impacts of historic winter weather across the North Carolina region.”

“This event is for the fans, and the fans at The Madhouse are some of the most passionate fans in all of sports,” project lead Justin Swilling said in a press release. “Moving the Cook Out Clash to Wednesday, Feb. 4, gives us the best opportunity to hold this event with fans at Bowman Gray Stadium while allowing the City of Winston-Salem to dedicate all of their resources to respond to the needs created by this historic weather event.”

Hendrick Motorsports driver Chase Elliott is the defending champion of the 200-lap race at the quarter-mile track.
