I give this 30/70 we get it in. Forecast gets better, then takes a shit at 8pm. Forecast for tomorrow afternoon/evening is pretty good. |

Imagine being the guy who has to sell NASCAR to TV stations. "Our series is on every Sunday for 36 weeks a year. We can't race in the rain so when it rains the race could last 8 hours or might happen on Monday. Or sometimes Tuesday. Also when it is on it's very boring so no one watches apart from a small group of die hard hate-watching masochists. Viewing figures are constantly dropping but dw because we keep removing stands so it looks ok on TV. The highlight of our season used to be a prestigious 500 mile race but now it's a political advert. Pls buy" |

Or make sure each track has a possible roval configuration, so if it's raining use the roval with wet tires, if dry, race as normal on the oval. So nothing ever has to get delayed or postponed. |

I'm sure Trump will still call this the most successful, most memorable and best attended 500 ever, by virtue of him being there. |

4pm is still pretty late for a rain delay race isn't it? do the expect the rain to still be around for a lot of the day? |

Forecast is fine for all day tomorrow. Apparently they want it to be near prime time on television. However, in the US tomorrow is a holiday and many, but not all of course, will be off work. |

They're probably must be aiming for a reasonable time for the west coast as well. After all, how many do live in California? And to gather momentum for the next few races.... it all makes sense. |

It’s all about Primetime TV. That time they raced in Monday night, they had really good ratings. There was some talk about having some evening races during the work week. I think it was the year of the jet drier incident. |

I work until 6 pm local (4 ET). I’ll try to leave a few minutes earlier. I can get home in 15 minutes or so. |

I have to leave to the doctor 30min after the scheduled start. This will be a torture. I can't wait for a torrent cause at night there will be our league race with a Daytona 500 of ours. Even if they don't spoil the finish, I would be too distracted by the chance of it happening. Oh well... The second half of the race I can probably watch allright. |
