Welcome to Bowman Gray Stadium, a.k.a. the Madhouse, the new home of The Clash, NASCAR's preseason tune-up. Drivers will need to leave their racing etiquette and good manners at the door, because there's no place for either on this short, rowdy track — one that hasn't seen a Cup race in more than half a century. It's the motorsports equivalent of a Mad Max film, and this fury road takes no prisoners.
Add in the Clash's one-weekend-only format — a Saturday full of qualifying and heat races leading into Sunday's main event — and you've got a recipe for chaos. But it'll be chaos taking place on hallowed ground, with a history that makes the action all the more spectacular.
