I know who Travis is, did you actually see the segment we were talking about? It was odd because his eyes were basically bulging out of his head and he looked frantic. It was odd because I've never seen anyone else act that way, including him when he's been in a truck before.
 
Big blobs moving northeast either side of Charlotte. They may get started at 8 but it looks like they'll have interruptions. This one may be run to halfway.

Or is the end of the second stage considered a 'complete' race? I can't keep straight which one it is. End of second stage has always seemed like a ripoff to me, since it's often far less than halfway. I don't know of any other sport that considers less than halfway to be complete.

I believe it's whichever comes first, halfway or the end of stage 2
 
Nope.
Still raining.
Fox must be planning on this being a lengthy delay if they've already gone to a C600 replay. There's a big blob of yellow coming up I-85. Looks like it will hit either before or not long after they get the track dry. NASCAR may have to decide to bump this race yet again or sacrifice O'Reilly P&Q (or both?). The NWS forecast calls for at least 80% through Wednesday.
