CONCORD, N.C. - The 2025 NASCAR Clash is now just two weeks away, signaling the beginning of the race season and all in a new location.
This year, the Clash will be run at Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina after three years at the Los Angeles Coliseum. In terms of the track dimensions, not much will change with Bowman Gray also presenting drivers the challenge of navigated a small, quarter-mile race track with no banking in the corners. The historic site, built in 1937, was previously home to Cup Series races from 1958-1971.
Hendrick Motorsports is third all-time with seven wins in the Clash. Jimmie Johnson claimed the most recent victory for the organization in 2019, one of two victories (also 2005) in the event for the seven-time champion. He's one of three drivers to win twice apiece for Hendrick Motorsports with Ken Schrader winning back-to-back in 1989 and 1990 and Jeff Gordon claiming wins in 1994 and 1997. Dale Earnhardt Jr. went to victory lane in the Clash in his first season with the company in 2008. All seven of Hendrick Motorsports' wins in the event came at Daytona International Speedway.
Hendrick Motorsports' current drivers - Alex Bowman, Chase Elliott, William Byron and Kyle Larson - made starts at Bowman Gray as part of the K&N Series East from 2011-2015.
