So a NASCAR race was postponed by snow on Sunday for the first time in 25 years. It had stopped snowing by Sunday morning in Martinsville, but NASCAR officials said the race was postponed because snow plows and emergency and utility vehicles were needed elsewhere in the area. Between 1971 and 1998, no spring race at Martinsville was held before April 18. But how about scheduling a race for April 8 there, and a race at Texas Motor Speedway on Sunday instead? Just imagine how many people would have tuned into a race with car sliding around corners, like a race on dirt.
