DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (June 18, 2026) — Due to continued inclement weather forecasted for the North Woodstock area through the weekend, NASCAR and White Mountain Motorsports Park officials have postponed the Thunder in the Mountains 200 to Saturday, July 18, 2026. An updated event schedule will be shared at a later date.
The fourth ever NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour event at White Mountain was originally scheduled for this Saturday, June 20, at 8:00 p.m. ET.

The quarter-mile asphalt oval, which opened for business in 1993, first hosted the Modified Tour in 2020. Four-time series champion Justin Bonsignore won the first Modified Tour event at the track with Doug Coby and Kyle Bonsignore also collecting victories within the last few years.
Jon McKennedy continues to be the hottest driver on the tour, as the 2022 series champion has won two of the last three events on the schedule (Seekonk Speedway and Oxford Plains Speedway). It‘s the first time McKennedy has won multiple races within a season, allowing him to pull within nine points of championship leader Stephen Kopcik after six events this season.
Stephen Kopcik continues to lead the Modified Tour standings. One season ago, Kopcik finished a close second at White Mountain to winner Kyle Bonsignore, which automatically makes Kopcik a favorite to win the Thunder in the Mountains 200 aboard the Wanick Motorsports No. 21.
Other notable entrants include defending Modified Tour champion Austin Beers, Patrick Emerling, Tyler Rypkema, Mike Christopher Jr., Eric Goodale, Matt Hirschman, Paulie Hartwig III and Jayden Harman, among others.
