The AdvoCare 500 has been rescheduled for Tuesday at 11 a.m. ET due to intermittent rain on Sunday evening and a forecast for continuous rain with severe thunderstorms throughout Monday. The race will be telecast live on ESPN. NASCAR normally tries to reschedule rainouts for the next day, but this time the forecast is so hopeless for Monday in the Atlanta area that NASCAR decided not to even try. "There's a 100 percent chance [of rain on Monday] and there are severe thunderstorms in the area," NASCAR spokeswoman Kristi King said. "In an effort continue to look out for the safety and well-being of our fans and competitors ... we want to make sure we don't put anybody in harm's way. So, Tuesday at 11." Actually there is no real promise of a clear day until Thursday. After Monday, there's a 60 percent chance of rain on Tuesday and even a 30 percent chance on Wednesday. "This is one of those deals where nobody wins," said NASCAR president Mike Helton, "but unfortunately it happens from time to time."
