A: the 1973 southeastern 500 was delayed by three weeks or so because of rain. it stands out as it is one of the few races where one person led all the laps - cale yarborough led the first 40 or so laps, then the rains came. they continued on with the season and when the chance came to finish the race, they went back and very quickly yarborough had lapped the field and went on to lead all 500 laps to win. don't know of any put off longer than that...
