The Clash has seen its fair share of iterations, from racing the high banks at Daytona to a one-of-a-kind circuit inside the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. This year, the Cook Out Clash returns to "The Madhouse” that is Bowman Gray Stadium for a second consecutive year in what should be an exciting contest.

Scroll through to see each winner of the exhibition event since 1979.
