As I ramble to you this morning, the Nationwide series qualifying is being delayed due to SNOW!
Does this surprise anyone? Not me! We have seen record snows this year that seems like it could take months to melt away.
There are numerous racetracks that are pushing back the first race of the year because of the weather. Most of them have the words "Frost Buster" in the name. I remember when Hawkeye Downs had talked of having a race on New Years Day. Gee.... I wonder why that never came to light?
Yes, it was snowing when the qualifying show came on and yes, the forecast as of last night did call for a chance of snow flurries this morning.
Nationwide qualifying this morning is indeed delayed for heavy snow flurries and a wet track. Jet dryers were out when SPEED came on air. Very interesting sight for Atlanta area. Crew came on at the scheduled start time for the broadcast and gave us a good update with Mike, Larry, Hermie in the booth and with Krista in the snow outside who interviewed Carl Edwards's Nationwide crew chief; she said not many drivers around.
After the five minute update, they moved to Back in the Day reruns until qualifying begins.
Well lets hope this weather straightens up soon!
Update: No Nationwide qualifying & they will line up by points! Now we will see if Cup practice gets any time!
