The All-Star race has fallen on hard times lately. In the last six iterations of the race, I can only recall two truly memorable moments- Carl Edwards destroying his car after winning in 2011 and Josh Wise winning the fan vote in 2014 against all odds. Neither of which happened in the actual race.

The exhibition event known as the Advance Auto Parts Clash (Feb. 18, 8 p.m. ET, FS1, MRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio) is the kickoff to the 2017 NASCAR season. The non-points paying event at Daytona International Speedway features a select field of Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series drivers at the 2.5-mile track.
As the 2017 NASCAR season approaches, fans can expect to see significant changes both on and off the track.
