DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Indiana's NewsCenter )- Rain, rain go away. That is the thought of NASCAR today, after more weather has forced the rescheduled start time of this year's Daytona 500 to pushed back to 7 p.m.

NASCAR president Mike Helton saying in a press conference on Monday morning that he can't guarantee the race will start at 7, but there is a much better chance then starting at noon.

Sunday marked the first time in the race's history that weather postponed "The Great American Race"

MyFOX Fort Wayne will have coverage of the Daytona 500, whenever it runs.
