So, are they going to get the race in tonite? Couple days ago they were talking a 70% chance of rain by the time the green flag drops. I see they've been drying the track. What's the outlook for the rest of the nite?

I sure hope they get the FULL race in tonight, not a rain shortened one.

I hope they get it in too. There's too much at stake tonite for a handful of drivers to have it rain shortened. Going to be a late nite for you guys out east....

Re: NASCAR - Richmond

If it gets shortened by rain, I'd like to see it wash out now before 1/2 way. However, it looks like they may get it restarted. Hope I can keep my peepers open for the rest of it.

G'nite 'speck!

Re: NASCAR - Richmond

Did you notice it seems dry talking with the drivers, but when Rusty is talking the water is dripping behind him? What is up with that???
