Format
Format Update: Due to weather, NASCAR has moved the main event from Sunday to Saturday. The show as a whole has also been condensed.
The fastest 22 drivers from practice will transfer into the main event. Heat races and the LCQ have been canceled.
The 23rd starting spot on the grid is reserved for the highest driver in 2023 season points who did not qualify for the race from their practice/qualifying time.
Feature: “The Clash main event will feature 23 drivers competing for 150 laps with only green lag laps counted – the race must end under green. A timed break will be observed at the halfway point of the race (Lap 75).”
Format before the adjustment due to weather
The following information is now out of date:
Practice/Qualifying: “The NASCAR Cup Series field will be split into (3) practice groups, with each group receiving (3) sessions. Each competitor’s fastest lap time from their final practice session will determine the starting lineup for the heat races.”
Heat Races: “Four heat races will run 25 laps each with only green flag laps counted – no overtime in play. The top five from each heat race advance through to The Clash.”
Last Chance Qualifier: “Cars that do not transfer into The Clash from heat races will compete in the Last Chance Qualifier Race with their starting position determined by where they finished in their respective heat races. The LCQ race is 75 laps with only green flag laps counted – no overtime in play. The top two finishers in the LCQ will transfer to The Clash.”
Feature Lineup: “The first 22 starting positions for The Clash is set through finishing positions in the heat races and the LCQ. The 23rd and final starting spot is reserved for the driver who finished the highest in the 2023 season driver points standings who did not already transfer into The Clash.”
