HiTech Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 SOME are mad at nascar about restarting that created this wreck .. NOT ME no rain on the track till just a few seconds before the cars went into that turn .. np mention if fans near that area or track officials even felt the rain . or had enough time to speak out with the speeds of those cars ...... rain happend like that more than once at cc speedway while i was out on the track racing ... so nascar did not affect the outcome in my books . the way the race was going and what was on line there was going to be a big wreck sometime with out the rain who would have been involved who knows , who would have still missed out being in the playoffs .. who knows ..

arob Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 I respectfully disagree. Especially at the high speed ,tight pack tracks like Daytona and Talladega. NASCAR has some of the best radar technology. They could see how very close the rain was to the track. You have to err in favor of safety and they didn't do that. If they threw the yellow this accident would not had happened and would had been a much better race if they were able to restart. With the 47 car being tossed around as it was it could had been much worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha! arob is ALWAYS respectful. Rain calls are always a "no win" deal whether it be before or during a race. No matter the call, someone will be upset. Florida is notorious for unpredictable "pop-up" showers that are hard to precisely track even on the best radar systems. In the past we have witnessed showers at one end of the track and sunshine on the other! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
