Texas Motor Speedway weather forecast, schedule, lineup

WHILE SATURDAY on the Texas Motor Speedway turned into a huge letdown, with rain washing out two cup practices and the O'Reilly Auto parts 300 Nationwide Series race, they can only hope that Sunday does not suffer a similar fate. The Cup race, the Samsung Mobile 500 happens today and the rescheduled Nationwide Series takes place today too.

NASCAR authorities and all those who will be at the Texas Motor Speedway - from fans to racers, have crossed their fingers due to a 60 per cent rain forecast as part of the weather forecast for Sunday. However, as of Sunday noon, the tracks are still wet and light drizzle persists at Fort Worth, Texas.

The Samsung Mobile 500, the eighth Sprint Series cup race is scheduled to begin at 3:00 PM ET. Tony Stewart starts at the pole with his 14 numbered Chevrolet. Sam Hornish Jr is second in the race lineup, while Greg Biffle, Jimmie Johnson and Kasey Kahne complete the first five racers into the first lap. The next five in the race lineup are Jeff Burton, Kyle Busch, Clint Bowyer, Dale Earnhardt Jr and Ryan Newman.
