Looks like will be lucky to even get it in tomorrow
It’s official. The Pennsylvania 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Pocono Raceway has been postponed.
A resumption of rain after 2 p.m. ET Sunday, combined with ongoing issues with weepers at the 2.5-mile, three-turn track forced the postponement of the race, which has now been rescheduled for 11 a.m. Monday.
Pocono does not have lights and track drying takes more than two hours, so getting the track dry today and being able to go the full 400-mile distance was not a realistic option.

But the worst may be yet to come, weather-wise.
According to Weather.com, the forecast calls for a 55 percent chance of rain at 11 a.m. tomorrow, increasing to 70 percent at noon and 80 percent at 2 p.m. It does not fall below 70 percent until 9 p.m., when the chance of rain is 65 percent.
