A day after rain forced NASCAR officials to move the Autotrader EchoPark 500 to Monday, the race has been postponed once again.
The remainder of the race is scheduled to resume Tuesday, October 27 at 12 p.m ET/9 a.m. PT on NBCSN.
Rain and a persistent mist plagued the track all day. NASCAR sent out the Air Titans and jet dryers numerous times from the early morning through the evening, but a nagging mist would not let up.
Texas marks the second race of the Round of 8, and 53 laps were completed on Sunday, October 25 before the track became too wet. Clint Bowyer is scored as the leader and will lead the field with the resumption of the race.
