Bowman Gray Stadium is undergoing significant upgrades ahead of the 2025 NASCAR Clash, scheduled for February 1-2. New installations include a Musco Lighting System, SAFER barriers, and catch fences to enhance safety and visibility for drivers and fans.

The installation of the SAFER barrier began on October 21 and is expected to finish by early January. NASCAR and local partners emphasize the importance of these improvements for community engagement and the stadium's legacy. A full schedule of events for the Clash weekend will be announced soon, with the race airing live on FOX.
