Day Late and a Couple Races Short
The first NASCAR event of the season will have to wait a day.
The Budweiser Shootout, an action-packed sprint that gives 21 drivers a chance to show their stuff at Daytona International Speedway, was postponed because of rain Saturday night. It was rescheduled for Sunday at 4:42 p.m. EST
The ARCA race, which had been set to begin after the Shootout, was pushed back to Sunday morning. It will start at 9:30 a.m.
Daytona 500 qualifying will remain on schedule for 12:08 p.m. Sunday.

The ARCA race was a demolition derby, and the Shootout was HMS wreck a thon, a slam a thon, and a do not pass the rookie for the lead kind of race. Nothing has changed much.
Yep, you’re right Antonette, in fact it was so much like last year it inspired the latest post.
As for the ARCA event, it always seems to be a wreck-fest. With so many young drivers it’s to be expected.
