Did the race get cancelled or postponed for a couple of hours? Nascar website has conflicting reports.

NASCAR website seems to always be The Last to Know!

About 10 minutes ago (~4:30 pm Eastern time) the Three Stooges -
(Darrell, Dumb, & Dumber) said "about an hour to go" and showed views
of the Emergency Vehicle Fleet driving laps on the track - which looked "dry"
in whatever corner they were shooting from.

Gonna be a LATE Night if the still plan to run the Nationwide Race AFTER the
Cup Race.

Geez. I had the race on via MRN here at work. They were doing pre race interviews and such, I had to step away, I come back and they're playing music.

So I jumped online. Race lineup said "RAIN OUT" while the front headline said they were going to "wait an hour" since it appeared the rain was moving out.

Wish they'd make up their minds!!

How about a raincoat? They don't usually let you bring an umbella in to the track.

I was tempted to go out to my car and get the Sirius radio. Now I think I'm just going to go to bed.

Wow!! What a day! I got the track about 930am, just in time to catch an interview the Fan Zone with Dale Jarret. Then it was over the Race Day, to see Mark Martin and the Speed guys. Next I Headed to Pit Road and watched some cars go through inspection and the Goodyear guys blow up some tires.
Pretty soon it was time for the ZZ Top concert! Awesome!!! They didn't play long enough, but it finally stopped raining! Then I was right inthe grass in fron of the stage for Driver intros. After that it was back down pit lane and over to the grandstand area to do a little shopping and finally around 2 pm, grab some lunch.

3 pm, we are going racing!! WhooHoo!!! Man, what a wreck!!! I was do relieved to see Casey Mears out of his car, cause it looked nasty!!!

Rain delay and an impromtu Football game broke out in Ryan Newman's pits.

Finally back to racing, until about 630. I called it quits then and headed back to the car. Traffic was gridlocked, so I walked back in to use the restroom, and watch them dry the track some. It wasn't looking promising so I headed out and forced my way into traffic about 730. By 745 I was on the move, and back to the hotel by 900. Christy had sent me a text message so see if I was still at the race so I called them for an update. I though twe were suppoed to go back racing at 9, and came in to find the Simpson's Now they are saying 10pm. We'll see..... I'll be watching from my warm ,dry, hotel room!!! PIctures will follow when I get home
