After snow prevented any of Saturday's and Sunday's scheduled on-track action, plus any of Monday's rescheduled on-track action, from taking place, Bowman Gray Stadium is finally set to host the Cook Out Clash on Wednesday evening.

Though the four 25-lap heat races around the four-turn, 0.25-mile (0.402-kilometer) Winston-Salem, North Carolina oval were canceled completely, NASCAR shifted everything else on the schedule over to Wednesday.

Practice and qualifying took place earlier today, and the top 20 drivers from qualifying locked themselves into the 200-lap main event. The other 18 drivers on the entry list were relegated to the Last Chance Qualifier, from which the top two are set to advance to the Clash after 75 laps.

Full qualifying results can be found here.

The 23rd and final spot in the Clash is set to go to the driver who finished highest in the 2025 point standings, among those not already locked in.

Follow along with our Cook Out Clash updates as the evening progresses at Bowman Gray Stadium.
