The Clash at Bowman Gray did not disappoint! Hoping this is an annual event.
The track was perfect. Awesome seats. Great experience!
I’m glad they brought it back to Bowman Gray (The Madhouse) that’s why they call it the Madhouse!! It’s great racing, but it bring the good drivers to the forefront and you have to on top of game or you won’t be any good.
The total package overall was great to be able to attend so close to home. Enjoyed Modifieds and Cup races. I would like to not have had so much time between the 2 divisions on Saturday. I assume that tv commitments and the logistics of moving modifieds out of the area for the Cup teams could have been a reason. A second complaint was that the fans paid and came to the races but then had to park off location . Bus shuttle was provided to and from the track with not a long wait on either end. The complaint was the charge of $49–$55 for the parking and shuttle. If BG is going to have the race then a place to park shouldn’t be an issue or at the least not charged such a high amount for that spot.
This was one of the best NASCAR races I’ve ever been to. It was exciting from start to finish and the atmosphere was awesome.
I loved it ..I go to that track alot to watch modified I was excited that nascar came there I'm hoping it will not be last ...love me some nascar
First Nascar race ever! It was awesome seeing my favorite drivers in person. It was fun watching them race at the madhouse!
Had a great time start to finish. Staff was incredible and plenty of vendors. Look foward to coming back.
We went to the Saturday events at Bowman Gray Stadium and it was a wonderful day! Hope NASCAR brings it back. Only complaint is a lack of smoke free seating.
We went to the Madhouse Classic and Practice for the Clash on Saturday. Great event. Really enjoyed the experience overall. Nice variety of food vendors and although they were event priced, they weren't unaffordable. (Only one vendor, selling coffee, disappointed as it was less than lukewarm and tasted horrible and was the same price as my meal earlier in the day!) The bench seating was a little tight, but we understood they want as many fans as possible to enjoy the event and provided standard seat widths. However, if one wants or needs more than 18"take that into consideration for events likely to sell out. Restrooms were ample and clean. Bowman Gray is a wonderful venue I'd not experienced before but hope to again for some of their regular events.
Best NASCAR race I’ve seen in awhile. That’s the hardest most of them boys have worked behind a steering wheel in a long time. A lot of passing through the field and outside of Burt no one took a junked car home. Great atmosphere and very well put together. Would do it again.
Having the clash in Winston-Salem was the best move by NASCAR ever. The place was ecstatic and there was a sold out crowd. The excitement was riveting. I hope they have this event every year at this venue. Simple over the top.
Racing at Bowman Gray is awesome!! Good close racing and not a bad seat in the place!!
Bowman Gray Stadium, the drivers and the fans delivered beyond expectations! I hope NASCAR comes back
Using ticket master never disappoints. Easy to show tickets for events. Bowman Gray stadium looked awesome. The folks that work there are top notch, very helpful. Nascar did a great job, I hope the clash remains there for a while. The only concern is probably the way they handled the off site parking on the return to the lots. Definitely confusing. Thanks for a great time.
We had an amazing time at this race. All the staff and vendors were super friendly and the excitement of rhe crowd was great. The race was one of the best I've seen from Nascar in a while.
Love the updates to the track. The race lived up to the hype. However why in the world would anyone blast music during a noisy cup car race? There is enough noise with the engines roaring!
Bowman Gray did a great job with this event. Parking was easy and after the event it was easy to leave.
Gorgeous night. Track glowed w stardom. Staff gave it full effort. Racing 3 wide can't ask for more. Music way too loud, couldn't have a conversation. Bus system needs adjustments. Bathrooms clean, food very presentable and reasonably priced. Maybe sold few too many 'standing room only' tickets for Facility size. Music way too loud. Dragged out the start of the race. Staff great. Race 9of 10. Did I mention speakers too loud. Will go back again, could be even better if speakers were turned down 2 decimals.
This was one of the best NASCAR and Bowman Gray Stadium races! What a wonderful experience to be a local and part of this event that was filled with excitement, nostalgia and generations of fans! The excitement was similar to when NWilkesboro reopened for the CUP cars but even greater!! There is no place like the Madhouse and NASCAR did an amazing job making it an unforgettable experience for the fans! The sound system was amazing (which it could stay for all BG races). The new lights were fun, loved the video, the soundtrack, fan zone, everything was well thought out and executed well especially considering this was the first Cup series in this many years at BG. I heard people grumble about parking but NASCAR was prepared. If you know Winston Salem, you know parking is a problem when many events have come to town (Trump Rally, Fair, etc) BG is in a older part of the city and that’s just how it is. I thought NASCAR did a great job preparing and warning people to be prepared. And my goodness, people will complain no matter what happens! Overall, I feel that most people understood and should realize, it takes time to get 20,000 in and out of an arena! Thank you NASCAR!! Please keep life in these older tracks like NW, Rockingham and Bowman Gray. Bring the Clash back to BG next year and for years to come!!
