88 car is the king of malfunctions. Shifters, seatbelts, you name it.

Race control calls for jet dryers on track to help keep track dry.

NASCAR still concerned with track conditions and caution car says it's OK.

Looks like this race could be done for.

Fog appears to be lifting a bit. Looked like a small cell of rain was close by, but heck, they've still got at least 3 hours of daylight, and only 22 laps left.

I'm partial because I left the house right when they sang the anthem, but I wanna go racing!

Race control tells teams to cover the cars, under weather warning, lightning in the area.
Crews told to seek shelter.

Cell looks a bit bigger than I thought, but we may only catch the edge of it. *shrugs*

 

[Dylan]

What? You guys didn't know that Fog Lightning was a thing?

Fans and crews told to seek shelter. Fog Crawlers and Anglers spotted. God knows how many ghouls are in the fog.

Bull:censored:, if I can race through PCARS heavy fog at night, they can race through this!

 

[GTFan24]

Everyone at Reddit saying NASCAR hasnt called it cause Buescher is leading.

Just remember, "Stock" cars don't have headlights. (yet anyway)

@GTFan24 as a TV viewer who is only watching this cuz nothing else is on (go figure) I can understand the feelings

Difference. Real life vs mediocre simcade.

 

[Jahgee]

Tornado Warning, and we haven't called it yet?

 

[Leadfoot530]

Radar keeps looking progressively worse. Starting to have my doubts.

 

[nascarfan1400]

Tornado Warning, and we haven't called it yet?

Jesus.

Also to whoever said stock cars didn't have lights:

It has been done.

Pretty sure that would do it. Given that it looks like the rain is coming. We'd even cancel indoor rc racing for those

IROC was special. Though rumor has it, NASCAR could require lights like that in the future.

🤬 double post

 

[01GTP]

That's an awfully weird looking trophy, the angles are all wrong.
