I'm looking at the weather radar and after all the hype about rain it looks like the Xfinity race today will be mostly dry with a couple showers lol. Definitely a dry start at the minimum.
 
Race rules and procedures


In the event of inclement weather, each series’ race director can declare a “wet” start or “damp” start, according to the NASCAR Rule Book. A wet start means that the entire racing surface is covered in moisture; a damp start means that the track has areas of moisture, but that other areas are dry. The race director can also declare the conditions not race-ready, if heavy downpours cause puddles and impaired visibility.


For a wet weather start:


  • All vehicles must mount rain tires, activate their rear flashing light and have a working windshield wiper installed.
  • Normal starting procedures follow.

For a damp weather start:


  • All vehicles may elect to install rain tires at the crew chief’s discretion. The rear flashing light must be activated, and windshield wipers may be installed.
  • Any team making a pit stop for rain tires on subsequent pace laps will forfeit their starting spot.

If by mostly dry you mean in the space between all the raindrops then yes, you nailed it! :cheers:
 
It will be interesting to see how he does after that hard whack. He's looking for a full time job next year

 
Pockrass is going with the Penske/Cendric combo for Texas. Not a bad pick. Not a Yota in the bunch. I would think Jones would lead that bunch. So far nobody has been able to touch the Fords for raw speed so I would say another Cendric/Briscoe battle?
