They lost a lot of fans today.

Yeah... Very surprising... I would actually say that it will be clearing sooner than that looking at the radar. The area of rain has been losing intensity the past hour or so and the back edge is almost to Daytona...

I am shocked they just called that race. I am a Robby fan, not a Nascar fan. Just so happens Nascar is what Robby is racing this time of year. No other sport could be so inconstant and still have a fan base, those fans must be pissed and rightfully so. They didn't sell the race out until last night, a true sign of the poor economy, and this is how you thank fans, not even a fair attempt to dry the track.

I agree... I completely understand that all of the people that it takes to run a race have been there all day and will still be there for a couple more hours to get the place cleared out... But the rain has already stopped looking at the victory lane shots they were just showing. Radar shows clearing... Track would have been dry in about 90 minutes...

Why interview Almendinger, etc after Kenseth. Lets interview the big sponsor guys like Stewart and Boyer!

Money, its all about money.

At least we still have off road
