The longest rain delay I call think of was the 1997 Spring Talladega race, but I don't think it'd meet your criteria.
They never actually started, then stopped the race. It was a rainout on Sunday, 4/27 and again the next day. They then had to postpone it because the haulers had to head for Sears Point for the race the following weekend. They finally ran the race on May 10 (Mother's Day, ironically), two weeks after the original race date.
