Today's race on TNT from Sonoma ?

Question

What is all this pre-race c**p ??? It said 1:30 PM MDT for the race. It's 2:15 PM and all this BULL. Did I miss something? A rain delay ? The tourist stuff is the same every year. If I wanted a helicopter ride to drink wine I'd GO TO CALIFORNIA. A new fan would have gone for a walk. I'm a 50 year fan-they are gagging me !

Answer 1

IDK. Nascar.com had 3:30 EST. Well I've already killed an hour an a half so only 1/2 to go. Hope it's worth it!

Answer 2

the races doesn't start until 2 20 pacific and 5 20 et i don't know what you read but it doesnt start for another 20 minutes

Answer 3

An hour and a half is a little long for a race that isn't Daytona of the Brickyard. It's mostly filled with fluff and filler, Race Day on Speed is longer but at least they have better content.

Answer 4

Dear Wooley,

We are watching it "LIVE" now in Wisconsin....on TNT...It's 7:30-ish and Kyle Busch won.....It was over quite a while ago in CA.... My husband is 50 and a 40+yr. fan and feels the same way....

Me? I just wanna go to bed....

G'Night!

Answer 5

NASCAR.com said 5:20 ET

Answer 6

Green flag is at 5:17 ET.   TNT is really milking their 6 races for all the TV time they can get.

Answer 7

why dont you watch something different till the race starts

5:20 est

Answer 8

Oh Wooley I know you watched every minute..  Lighten and have a beer or something.  We know you didn't miss a second.

Answer 9

TNT did that last year too.  I think the hour that FOX and ESPN take up with a pre-race is too long for a typical race.  There's no point in having an hour and a half long one.  

It's a planned 1 1/2 hour long pre-race.  You didn't miss anything.

Answer 10

They aren't any worse than NBC...no better, I MISS DW!!!

Answer 11

I'm getting to the point I don't watch the pre-race at all. I'm starting to watch more IRL and have always been an F1 fan.

As far as any pre-race, they are getting to the point of being redundant. The times when Kyle Petty is on I enjoy because he never takes himself seriously and is a good entertainer. He's also the guy that realizes there's more to life than racing.
