05/01 - Scintillatingly Jaded on Sunday!

94 laps is the halway point so the race can actually count if it gets cancelled due to weather

It's not assured they'll call it (especially if it's only a quick shower and they can dry the track) but they can at that point.

   Daytona International Speedway is 2.5 miles (4 km) long and a 500-mile race requires 200 laps to complete. However, the race is considered official after half its distance (100 laps and 250 miles (400 km)) has been completed.

So they wont have to finish the race if it starts raining after 94 laps? What happens if it rains before then?

This is not the Daytona 500
The race is at Talladega

 

[BrewMeister]

They would call the race at halfway, 94 laps. If it rains before then, they will sit and wait to finish it. Maybe even to tomorrow.....

They're at 85 now so they'll probably make it.

about 536 miles

Sounds like one lets you sleep longer waiting for it to end.

If I was a fan and had paid to go watch that race, I wouldn't be too happy if they called the race halfway through because of rain. That's like paying for a pizza and only getting bread sticks... but I guess they can't control the weather...

According to the radar it looks like it's about to start pouring any minute. They got a lil storm just south west and a bigger one not too far behind...

@TQueen

Well his total hits is a bit over double his recieved, so I rounded it to about $0.50.. unless I'm missing the point of the quote?
