Live Lineup updates, results from 2025 Cook Out Clash at Bowman Gray Stadium

On February 3, 2025By Littum

It’s time to start a new NASCAR season with the annual Cook Out collision on February 2nd (8 pm, Fox, MRN Radio, Siriusxm Nascar -Radio) -but in a new place. After running the Cup Series’ Forsø-Seasonal Exhibition at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum for three years, the race is switching to a new place in the historic Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Here’s how it works: The area for 39 participants will be divided into Three practice groups Saturday, with each group receiving three sessions. The final exercise session for each group also acts as qualifying, with each driver’s fastest lap determines the Heat Race lineups in order of speed. Each heating is 25 laps (counting only the laps of green flags and no overtime), with the top five locking in Sunday’s main event.

The 23rd and final place in the clash is reserved for the driver, who finished the highest in the last location from the 2024 season and did not ran into the main event.
