The wait continues. The 2026 NASCAR Cook Out Clash exhibition race was postponed even further due to inclement weather.
After originally being postponed until Monday, NASCAR announced the race will now be held on Wednesday, Feb. 4 due to a second winter storm in as many weeks blanketing Winston-Salem, N.C., with up to 8-10 inches of snow, according to the National Weather Service.
‘Out of an abundance of caution due to hazardous road conditions, NASCAR and the City of Winston-Salem agreed to move all on-track sessions for The Clash to Wednesday to allow safer travel,’ NASCAR said in a statement on Sunday.
Events around the Cook Out Clash were canceled because of the winter storm: the FanFare on Fourth, originally set for Friday, and the Cars & Coffee event planned for Sunday morning will not proceed as planned.
