Initial situation
In March 2024, the sanctioning body of NASCAR took over the auto racing operations lease from the Hawkins family-owned Winston-Salem Speedway, Inc., ending a 75-year lease. Five months after NASCAR's takeover, NASCAR executive vice president Ben Kennedy announced the Cup Series' return to the facility in 2025, moving the exhibition, non-points-paying race known as the Clash from the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum to Bowman Gray Stadium.
In preparation for the event, numerous renovations were made. By January 2025, a new lighting system was installed, and the surrounding guardrails were removed and replaced by SAFER barriers and protective debris fence. The first Clash at the facility was run on February 2; the first Cup Series race at the stadium since 1971.
Description
Geobrugg Motorsport provided support to NASCAR in updating Bowman Gray Stadium to host the next NASCAR Clash event.
Our mobile debris fence, consisting of concrete barriers and debris fence panels, was selected to provide the required level of protection.
The interlinked concrete barriers provided a solid base and a fixation point for the SAFER barriers, while the debris fence protects against flying debris.
