Could be.
Fox stopped NASCAR coverage 10 minutes ago, and, by my reckoning, provided I have the timezoning right, will be back in 80 minutes from now for an update. It'd be unfortunate to miss stuff in the meantime, but I guess it is what it is. |

Just had a 30 second update on Fox, and it seems NASCAR is supposedly adamant that the race will go on.

I wonder if the Busch guys still have to run an hour after Cup finishes like they said...and if ANYONE will stay til dawn to watch them race...
Hey I noticed Elliot's U2 3D car...and saw it mentioned in the beginning posts. What is that logo for? |

Busch/Nationwide...makes no different to me either way. I'd rather not have title sponsorship, but so be it.
The series is the same either way, so, as far as I care, you can call it whatever you want. I mean this in a positive sense. Welcome to the fora, gordonfan24wins. Last edited by Dutton; 25 Feb 2008 at 03:45. |

I've only got a basic cable package here, so I haven't got anything at the moment.

I forgot to add I am Canada, as opposed to the US.
Just had minute or two of NASCAR there, and if my earlier figuring was correct then this might be a bit longer than a minute or two. |

I'm not going to get much, if any, sleep before work. I would be getting up at 2am if I were in bed, and it is 9pm now. It is going to be 14 hours at least at work...
I am uncertain how long I will push things for. Oh, and it seems I am back to no coverage as they show the SImpsons episode they just showed recently. Oh well. Last edited by Dutton; 25 Feb 2008 at 04:12. |

Don't really see the point in racing..... Barely anyone will be there to watch it so they may as well just postpone it til tomorrow so more people will show up and when the weather is actually lookng better....
Meant to be 19 degrees celsius and cloudy on Monday - No rain. |
