OK, I'll start. Looks pretty cloudy, and there'sa high change of rain. Will they get the race in?

Rain possible at Pocono: the weather forcast of Pocono Raceway: Showers and possibly a thunderstorm before noon, then showers and thunderstorms after noon. Some of the storms could produce gusty winds. High near 73. Breezy, with a west southwest wind between 13 and 21 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New rainfall amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms.

This is exactly what we had here yesterday afternoon.
 
The worst thing about this rain delay is the increased time that we have to listen to McRaynolds. GAH! Thought we could get a way from him.
 
Could Boyer and Montoya look any less enthused for the commercial or whatever the hell you call it?
 
Great now they decide to patch the track.Will this be Daytona all over again.
 
Hi guys!

I took a nap...anything happen? They were going round & round when I went off and I just looked and they are still at it.
Betsy:rolleyes:
 
Pocono has always been one of my least favorite tracks. The only time it ever gets fun to watch is restarts when they fan out 5 wide on that big wide long front stretch. Other than that...yawn.
 
POCONO has gotten more boring since they don't have to shift there any more. :/
 
I just awoke from a well deserved Pocono nap. Has anyone discussed the smoke coming out of Hamlins car?
 
Even NASCAR got bored and decided to throw a "bunch up the field" caution 40 laps early. Thanks NASCAR.
I have never agreed to phantom cautions, but this race needs them.
 
Only good thing about that caution was it helped bring my fantasy drivers back closer to the front.
 
I would say Kyle and Joeys top 5 run would be because of having Hamlin as a teamate. He owns Pocono since he came into the big league racing.
 
Now this is going to be interesting. Why watch the entire race when all the action is in the last ten laps?
 
Well here we go, wreck feast otherwise called Green White Checkers coming up.

Bad move or just racing? I didn't see anything malicious by Happy but I am a fan of his. Anyone else call it like they see it?
