Snow day! Drivers share pictures of winter fun – Nascar

RELATED: See tracks covered in snow

The NASCAR community may not have collectively received the full brunt of snow initially predicted, but wintry weather still hit North Carolina late Friday night and into Saturday, sending several drivers and crew chiefs outside to play.

Those based in Charlotte know that predictions of big snow — and such was the case this weekend — can often wash out in a sea of sleet or cold rain, but there was still more than enough to break out the sleds in the northern parts of the piedmont.

Here’s a look at drivers playing in the snow with their families. Our favorites include Joey Logano sitting in an outdoor hot tub, Greg Biffle using the hood of a race car for a sled and Darrell Wallace Jr. posing for a … risqué … photo.
