We still have over an hourNot sure how Nascar will rule on the halfway minimum rule if it is not possibile to resume before the 8:20 deadline.
Just saw this on Twitter. The networks really have to look at starting races at 11am central/12pm eastern time like in the past. Theyre all about attracting new fans which is great but how many of those fans are you driving away due to getting trapped into a weather delay or postponement because you start so late?
It’s a novel idea, the execution of it is stupid by starting this late. It’s undeniable the last two years of this has been a circus. Just a colossal letdownStarting a race at 3 PM on a “track” with no lights and no way to resume tomorrow has to be the stupidest ****** decision I have ever seen from an event management perspective.
Just mind blowing how stupid NASCAR and/or NBC are here.
Lord have mercy, I wish I could buy you for what you are worth and sell you what you think you are worth. lol.Starting a race at 3 PM on a “track” with no lights and no way to resume tomorrow has to be the stupidest ****** decision I have ever seen from an event management perspective.

Is this even worth a Rate the race thread?
This is the best insult ever lmao I’ve never heard this before ha ha I’m stealing this for real life lmao sorry Naitch, I get along with him but my gosh nothing against you at all ha ha but this made me laugh. I’m also easily amused in your defenseLord have mercy, I wish I could buy you for what you are worth and sell you what you think you are worth. lol.
Agreed. Your window for error is dramatically cut with these late starts imoIf you know you have minimal margin for error, you have to start your event as early as possible. This should start at noon local time.

One more time: the networks are on record as willing to accept a couple of rainouts each season to get the larger TV audiences that come with later starts.Just mind blowing how stupid NASCAR and/or NBC are here.
Ah McDonald’s is a sponsor of this race, I see what you did there. I think your main point though is valid imoI mean…if my worth is determined by my ability to criticize basic event planning mistakes, you might be able to sell me and buy the new $5 McDonald’s meal. Even Forrest Gump can comprehend NASCAR and NBC’s mistakes.
Well they’ve had a lot of weather related issues this yearOne more time: the networks are on record as willing to accept a couple of rainouts each season to get the larger audiences that come with later starts.

That's correlation, not causation.NASCAR’s ratings peaked when we regularly had noon start times.
What's he do if everyone else goes farther?6 to go to halfway.
This is incorrect. NASCAR’s ratings peaked in the mid-2000s when 2pm or later starts were the norm.NASCAR’s ratings peaked when we regularly had noon start times.
