The delay was initially for lightning. Not sure if that’s why they’re still stopped though.

It is raining now though

Based on the pics and vids being posted on Twitter, the rain is HEAVY.

Start time has been moved back a bit to give Larson time to get to the track.

Gragson won the fan boost or whatever it is that NASCAR calls it to qualify for the All Star race.

Kyle will always be a pissy little bitch

Kyle Busch took out McDowell on lap 2 and he's parked the car on Kyle's pit box.

That was Stenhouse. And he did nothing wrong. Kyle needs to eat the wall at some point for that shit. Really pathetic.

Only Kyle could get angry on lap two over a little contact

The thing is, Stenhouse didn’t actually put him in the wall. There was room and the 8 just pushed into the fence. I wouldn’t really blame Busch if Stenhouse did something stupid, but it was just plain Kyle’s mistake. Really embarrassing shit, even by KB standards. Especially after he’d been keeping out of trouble for quite a long time. Maybe I’m forgetting something, but I can’t remember the last time Kyle was in the middle of any shenanigans that he started.
