And saying that they are going to try and run the whole thing tonight.

Man this is crazy. Saying in about a hour they are going to get it started again.

Fontana, CA.That makes more sense then. I was thinking it had to be west coast, no way they'd be starting a race in the southeast after midnight. Still, 10 pm. Wow.

Fontana ( Los Angeles ) Crazy. A lot of these drivers are driving in the Nationwide Race tomorrow. Going to be working on about no sleep...

12:00 central, shit I am going to be tired if I stay up and watch it.

They say the weather looks clear from here on out so they plan to run the entire race. How would you like to have purchased tickets for this race? The Speedway is hurtin'...

There was a race in Daytona a few years ago that was rain delayed, and ended around 1AM central time. It was on a Saturday night though so it wasn't quite as strange as this.

Hell I think I will stay up and watch it, waited all day for the SOB

This has to be the longest NASCAR delay in history. I bet if they did not have to get the Nationwide Race in tomorrow as well they would just schedule the conclusion for the morning. They just need to get it in. I wonder how many fans are actually left.

No work in the morning? I would stay up if that were the case.

Thank God for TiVo...although it will not be the same knowing the outcome.

Have a Dentist appointment at noon, but I catered an event last night to about 550 people....and was to lazy today and put off putting all the liquor and shit up until tomorrow. Got to love the procrastinating, it always seems to come back and bite ya in the ass.

Procrastinating is one of my strongest points :) Enjoy the race. I got to be up at 5 AM PST... Time to hit the rack.

It's on FOX, but they have been showing local programming and occasionally breaking in. Looks like I get an infomercial in the meantime..

Man, I gotta get up in a few hours for work. Guess I'll watch it on the bedroom tv until I fall asleep.

The mrs is staying up to watch,I looked at her and said,"we've got tivo" to which I was told if it were a football game you'd be doing the same to which I said,"no,I wouldn't I don't have to be concerned about such things in a sport where men compete in almost any kind of weather."

LOL, that's true. Did you get to see ZZ Top when the race first came on a million hours ago?

Yeah I watched but wasn't very impressed,me thinks maybe the boys had a hard night of partying and aren't used to singing so early in the day.

Supposed to get started at 2 am eastern. But I have trackpass on, and there isn't much radio traffic, so not sure if they will get it started on time...AGAIN.

Listening to the 99 Carl Edwards and his crew chief Bob is in a bad bad mood! Man he has been eating everyones ass over the radio.

I can't believe they're going to do this. There's going to be drivers falling asleep at the wheel.
