The resumption of the NASCAR Cup Series’ AutoTrader EchoPark Automative 500 at Texas Motor Speedway has been further postponed, moving to Tuesday, October 27th at 11:00AM CST / 12:00PM EST on NBCSN.

The race was originally scheduled for Sunday, October 25th, but was forced into postponment because of the persistent percipitation. NASCAR attempted to dry the track all throughout the morning and afternoon on Monday, but there was not a clear window in which the event would be able to run until its official distance.

Clint Bowyer continues to retain the lead with Jimmie Johnson and Erik Jones rounding out the top-three with 53 of 334 laps complete.
