Auto Club Speedway Weather Forecast: Showers Saturday Night & Sunday Morning, What about Racing?

There will be another disturbance coming off the Pacific that will cause a few showers going into Saturday night and Sunday morning. I think this dries out as we head towards race time but there could be a few showers that linger or even some drizzle during pre-race and up to the start of the race. I think Sunday overall is dry with some cloud cover.

Saturday:
10:10 a.m MDT (1:10 p.m EDT)
Nationwide Qualifying – Partly sunny - temp: 50
11:30 a.m MDT (2:30 p.m EDT)
Sprint Cup Practice – Partly sunny - temp: 54
12:50 p.m MDT (3:50 p.m EDT)
Sprint Cup Final Practice – Partly sunny - temp: 58
2:30 p.m MDT (5:30 p.m EDT)
Nationwide Race – Clouds & sun - temp: 61

Sunday :
