RAIN, RAIN GO AWAY — For the moment, the weather at Talladega Superspeedway is partly cloudy and comfortable, but it isn’t expected to stay that way, unfortunately. According to weather.com, there is a 50 percent chance of rain today, with showers already reported nearby. The probability of precipitation rises to 90 percent on Saturday, with a 60 percent chance of rain on Sunday.
NASCAR has its high-tech Air Titan track drying system at Talladega this weekend, and it looks as if it will get a workout soon.
