Nascar Lightning Protocol
8-Mile Detection Zone: Lightning detected within an 8-mile radius of the race track triggers safety measures.
30-Minute Delay: A mandatory 30-minute hold begins immediately after lightning is detected within the 8-mile radius.
Clock Reset Rule: If additional lightning strikes occur within the 8-mile radius during the 30-minute hold, the delay timer resets to 30 minutes from the latest strike.
