Daytona 200 by Arai; start delayed by 45 minutes.

Anybody got an idea why??? Something happen on the warmup lap?

 

Yates and Hacking crashed in what seems to be an oil spill from Ciccotto. Hayden looks to be a lap down due to problems.
Mladin was leading.

Thanks, I knew that much. I was just wondering why they delayed the start.

 

Jesus what the hell is going on down there! Red flag, red flag fire, red flag fire, ....

Ah Goberts out that's all that matters.

 

I wonder if ESPN2 will still televise it at 5:30; it might not be over by then!

 

Man, the Pro Thunder race must have been an ugly one too!!!

 

Can't believe that that guy died. Not a great way to start the year.

 

Yeah, it's too bad. I hope they don't send anymore of them to the hospital from this one!

 

I've got the update coming every couple minutes and I'm actually hoping Bostrom can pull something out even though I did not pick him for my fantasy team.

 

You watching AMA or Cycle News?

 

AMA direct link it's got this screen that updates every 3 or 4 minutes automatically.

 

Now I've got both going.

 

Mladin 1 sec better than Duhamel on the pit! Damn I wish I were there!

 

Ever been there?

 

NO! And it kills me! Well I was there during August on the beach and passed the speedway, does that count?

Hey one of my predictions was right, Gobert would smoke his tires.

 

Well time to watch this thing, been nice chatting with ya. Have a good year.

Pete

 

I've seen less red flags during a C Stupidbike Nervous race at Pocono.

 

ROTFLMFAO!!!!

 

The delay was for TV and nothing else since everything was on schedule.
