A week ago Charlotte Motor Speedway announced an open test for the Camping World Truck Series today.
It was quickly postponed to Jan. 24.
The cause? The first snowstorm of the year in North Carolina.
That means it’s time for obligatory shots of a snow-covered race track and team shops.
Before we get started, Cole Pearn, the Canadian crew chief for Martin Truex Jr,. thinks all the excitement over a little snow is adorable.
First up is a bird’s-eye view of Charlotte Motor Speedway. After that, teams like Hendrick Motorsports and Team Penske tweeted proof there’s no such thing as a snow day in NASCAR. Also, Daniel Suarez and Dale Earnhardt Jr. each got into a bit of a jam while driving.

In case y’all didn’t think @DaleJr was a great person already, just saw him covered in snow trying to help a car get out of a ditch. Said he didn’t need my help. Haha

NC stay off the roads today/tonight. 5 minutes after helping these folks I center punched a pine tree. All good. Probably just needs a new alignment. pic.twitter.com/OfA5Q28jew

The caution flag was definitely waving as the team arrived at the shop this morning for weather.
