THE CLASH

When it was at Daytona, it was easier to reschedule since everyone was already there and would be there until the 500. There was no rush to get back so you can prep for Daytona.

Also it was a complete joke at Daytona. Basically everyone just driving single file trying not to wreck

In the latter years, yes. At one point, it was actually a good race.

It was supposed to be the first Cup race of Speedweeks, which is why it was special. If it’s not at Daytona, they might as well dump it. It seems to be more headache than it’s worth.
 
Is there really no on track action until Wednesday of next week in Daytona? I guess it doesn't matter much then if they push it back a week.

I can’t wait to see what Mother Nature has planned for Daytona next week. I’m guessing storm of the century, 24 inches of snow and subzero temperatures.

The long range GFS (which is usually trash but did nail this blizzard of the century in NC) is spitting out a literal hurricane.

Honestly it’s getting comical at this point watching them try to pull this off, and I’m not sure if they are going to end up having time or not. I hope they do. If not I wonder what will happen. There is no precedent for this with an exhibition race. Other ones have been rescheduled to the end of the season etc in extreme case in the last, it those weee points races. It’s kind of entertaining watching.

That being said, regardless, I’m in a bit of a pretty bad emergency situation possibly and may not be getting to watch anything for a while unless I find a way to resolve it, which is looking increasingly more unlikely, more unlikely than them being able to pull off this race unfortunately. Perfect timing with Nascar coming back, which is basically the only thing I truly enjoy anymore other than my two dogs.

So if they do I really hope you guys can enjoy it as great little kickoff for the season.

FYI I was just having a bad night last night and for now at least everything is fine now. :)

Still a small, mischievous part of me wants to see it snow just to see how they handle that with the 500 rapidly approaching.
