WELCOME EVERYONE

This week we are going to Watkins Glen International Raceway in New York. Please join us for a full weekend of racing.

Watkins Glen International continues a road-racing tradition that dates back to 1948 -- when sports cars competed on the streets of the village at the southern tip of scenic Lake Seneca. The circuit, which at one time hosted the F1 United States Grand Prix, has grown to become one of the most respected facilities in the northeast.

I can only think that maybe they keep some of the noise out.

Hamlin stalled in the esses; they waved off the restart.

One more caution for Hamlin. I guess it's GWC for the finish, it's gonna be good!!

And there's rain a few miles out.

We should have 3 to go when we go green.

No GWC; that doesn't happen unless we don't restart until lap 81 (and we're working lap 79)

Lights are off on the pace car again; we'll have 3 to go.

Rain delay of 2 hours explains why the guide's off, plus the first 17 laps run under green/yellow.

Let's be ready, be ready, green flag!
