@ reck.I would wait and have waited until 3 and 4 am for a good dirt track race, but I wouldn't for an asphalt race.
They said they wouldn't start it tonight if they couldn't be done by 2am

So, why did they start it?? Radar plainly said "the rain is here." They knew they were not going to get this race in.

Bummer,didn't realize there was weather issues.

NASCAR makes every attempt to get the race in before calling it. If you don't believe me ask NASCAR. They will tell you they are men of their word. LOL

Because Mother Nature is in on NASCAR's conspiracy. How else could they guarantee Jeff would lead a lap and get 5 pts...
NASCAR does PLAY God, they just PAY him!

OOOOOOOOO thats ugly.
I don't understand why they do it like that.
The laps count but you can't pass anybody
Doesn't make sense to me.
Why even stick the green out there to begin with?

At least Riggs didn't hit the wall when he got sideways.
Has anyone ever been at an intersection where a yellow and green light were on at the same time???
The yellow and the green at the same time is counter-productive.

The true definition of Mayhem I would say.

The yellow and green means SLOW DOWN AND GO THE HECK ON.
No Reck, you don't get it. Nascar don't tell the fans till they have to sit in the rain for at least 4-6 hours. I have sat in alot of them at Bristol.

Uh ok, but lets say the rain stops around 10PM..by then, it'd be to late because of the 2AM curfew.
Anyway Jeff Gordon said that his car races better during day time so running it tomorrow during the day ain't so bad after all.

Yeah, since they didn't reach half way (200 laps) they will reset the laps.
I'm glad they are running it tomorrow.
That's how they used to running it before so its all good.

Royal/Jim Stewart 400 was postponed until Sunday because of heavy rain Saturday night at Richmond International Raceway.
The 400-lap event will start at 1:15 p.m. EDT.
The drivers took 12 laps - all under caution - before the rains came Saturday. Those laps will not count, and the race will start from the beginning Sunday. The parking lots will open at 6:30 a.m., while the grandstands will open at 10 a.m.
This was the first postponed Nextel Cup race since Talladega in April 2006.

I am not sure but I think the rule is: If they do not actually turn them loose under green the laps do not count. Had they turned them loose then the rain had come then the laps would have stood.
