At first I was embarrassed that NASCAR fans could be this dumb, but then I was relieved to find it's just society in general.

Just gotta wait for another 45 mins of rain, then we're clear should be racing in 2-3 hours.

No offense but that thought comes every day for me.

NASCAR has suspended drying operations for now. It's pouring.


At the same time, the DIS facebook posts this.

Something is really odd about how NASCAR/Fox are handling this delay.


I don't think the right hand knows what the left hand is doing, at this rate.

I think this would be the most accurate:

Is it raining? Maybe
Are they drying the track? Maybe
Will they finish the race tonight? Maybe

I think they might be starting to trick themselves due to the reruns.

I suppose this would be the opportune moment (ie shameless plug) to say to any TBKOC guys in the thread, you only have till the 1st March to get everything into Leon. Just remember we don't delay our races

I guess they are still working on drying the track. The jet dryers just came in for a round of pit stops.

I'm told the jet dryers were all just pulling off for fuel while a shower popped up. They are still trying to dry. Last cells here now.

Drying now. Best shot at drying we have had all day. Radar improved. Fingers crossed for Prime Time #Daytona500

The handling and reaction to the 2013 rerun is infinitely more exciting than that race ever was.

To be fair I think every one of us has been burned by this "thinking it's live but it's last year" phenomenon in all the years of rain delay coverage (I know I have), but can't believe a few idiots on social media made hundereds think this.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

My side.... Can't believe those people think that 2013 Daytona 500 is 2014 Daytona 500.

I'll admit the 2013 race almost had me thinking it was live for a few seconds because the weather conditions looked so similar, but I quickly saw Harvick in the 29 and knew it was last year.
