NASCAR race day weather for Talladega Superspeedway - Can they race before rain arrives?

Weather will be mostly dry at Talladega Superspeedway but rain could arrive toward the end of the race. Can NASCAR go the distance? Get your NASCAR weather forecast.

Rain showers associated the remnants of Patricia over Texas, Louisiana. and Arkansas will slowly work into Mississippi and toward Alabama during the day Sunday. While most of the race is expected to be dry, a shower toward the second half of the race is possible. I am keeping my odds of racing the Sprint Cup race Sunday at around 75 to 80 percent. I do think we will get the race complete and given the forecast beyond Sunday, NASCAR needs to get this race complete Sunday afternoon.
