I am not sure what he is looking for for an answer. I have been watching NASCAR for years. did they used to run darlington on mother's day? i can't remember the old schedule since they changed it the last couple years.I do wish if it were a saturday night race that got rained out,they would do it on the sunday at night instead of the afternoon.

Race is at noon today. The spring Darlington race (they only do Darl. once a year now) has always been on Sat. because of Mother's Day. I'm curious to know the punchline too. It must be a doozy if we have to wait a whole day for it. BTW, I like Denny Hamlin in this one.

The old schedule used to have Mother's Day weekend and Easter weekend off. I remeber because my wife was not happy with no racing that weekend. And whend they started scheduling the Saturday races she was excited about it.

The joke? The race for the ladies is held at the track called "The Lady in Black".

Quite a few steamers out there today. Kudos to those engine builders for putting together such tough motors.

Being in the pocket of the france family and the exact image of the fans they(france's) are trying to reach.


It's not worth the time you waste to even watch it anymore, man. Just find a project.

That's what had me confused. There never was a raced schedule on mothers day weekend, unless it was a makeup race.
