This is what I was thinking. Why put the race so close to when the weather is known to happen and the delay could push past the daylight hours.

All the money that goes into these events and the cars alone should give them enough say as to choosing a better green flag time.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
