What time does the texas cup race start on sunday?

THIS could get interesting.
 
There are 334 laps in this race.  The race is official if they get halfway, which is 167 laps.  Right now, we're at 50.  It takes about half a minute to get around Texas, so if there are no cautions, this race could be official in about an hour.

Johnson took over the point lead when the green flag dropped due to Kenseth's poor qualifying effort.  Kenseth is up to 30th, but still has a ways to go.  There is a thunderstorm heading in the track's direction. 

As I said, this could get interesting.  More opportunities for NA$CAR to make calls to keep the Chase tight.

May be...but the weather service is saying it's supposed to start pouring by 4:00 central (which is about 35 minutes from now)

Seems Brian has figured out how to control the weather now.
What won't that guy do to add excitement to the "entertainment"?
 

***I'd slide down razor blades into 90 percent alcohol to see Brian doin' a rain dance.***
Yes I would!

Yeah, the Taliban Militia was right about one thing: white people shouldn't dance.


This weather thing is getting hairy.  Fifty more laps and this thing is in the books.  And they just said the sun is coming out. 

Usually, Robby Risor is pretty good about getting Matt's car better.  He NEEDS the second half of this race to close the gap on Johnson.

Well, they were pretty lucky.  Wasn't but an hour or two after the race ended that it looked AWFUL on those weather maps.  I rained pretty hard where we live (and we live about 50 miles northeast of TMS) all night long.

Did anyone check on nascar.com's garage cam on sunday morning and see how hard it was raining it was raining pretty hard there 2 or 3 times.

Fortuanately though it stopped and they were able to dry the track and run the race.

For awhile by how the skies looked early in the race i thought it was going to rain again after halfway but fortuanately it did not.

I know what ya mean Bryan, The sky looked very, very bad. I thought that the race was going to have to run on Monday because it looked like the sky was going to open up at anytime.
