Only 106 of 200 laps completed, just six more than halfway. I know how it feels to see a race go 53% at Pocono, because I was at the inaugural Xfinity race there last year and we only went 53 of the 100 laps due to persistent rain showers that wouldn't quit, got redemption this year with it going all 100 laps and a heated battle for the win among the top 3 in the final laps. If I was NASCAR that day I would have postponed the event to Monday, but I also would have shortened the distance and said the race would end at lap 100 like they did there in July 2002 where they knew they weren't going to get to 200, so they ended the race at lap 175 so we could have a green flag finish before more rain and darkness crept in. Later that year at Kansas after rain, they had rain after 148/267 laps, but they restarted it with a new distance of it ending at lap 225, then after a lengthy caution for a crash they revised again to end at lap 210. Funny thing is, when I got redemption from this year from last year's rain-shortened event, it occurred 10 years to the day of this race. This was on June 10th, 2007 while I got redemption on June 10th, 2017.
i was there it was my first nascar race besides goin 2 the dirt track everyweek and it was cool but it sucked cause it rained all day.Then it just had 2 rain just passed half way
Loved how the cars looked from 04 to 07
Late 90s early 00s were the best
This was the first race Michael Mcruzs saw and it was only around 100 laps long and his favorite driver Jimmie Johnson’s Tire Exploded

What time was it roughly when NASCAR called the race?
I see it was sunset at 1:55:48
Listen to that awesome Bill Weber assertion at 1:23:50.
And McReynolds schooling him and Dallenbach after the commercial break.
This was my first race
Connor Allen nice
Connor Allen Brother this was my first race too. So awesome to see my favorite driver win as a 7 year old kid at his first race. Memories forever
the time they red flag the race @ 7:00 pm and the race was called @ 7:35 pm their you go Gabriel nunes
steve was wrong in last interview saying they didn’t win any races having the best car 07 spring dega race he was clearly the best car
1:47:08 the race was red flag for rain for the 2nd time
Sun was starting to set. If they resumed the race and ran it to conclusion, drivers would wreck left and right without the lights after 9:00 at night.
4:17
4:40 they spelled jimmies name wrong
