Daytona

Today's "Great American Race" has turned out to be a marathon. NASCAR has had to deal with one 1.5 hour delay coupled now with a second delay due to a hole which formed on the track. The first effort at patching the hole did not last so race officials are at it again.

Imagine the Super Bowl being delayed due to some sort of playing field issue--that's what is going on here. Millions of viewers have likely turned elsewhere and now it appears, given the time of day in Florida, that some fans are exiting as well.

Here's hoping that the race can finish under the green flag and not in another shortened race, like 2009, when rain forced an early checkered flag.
