Cool! Thanks Bill!

There is a little delay but, I usually put on ESPN3 and NHRA Live Timing on on the side bar. You can see the cars go down the track then Live Timing is delayed about 10 seconds but, you know who is who and who is racing. I think it's the best we will ever get to live timing.

The thought of seeing live coverage of any NHRA National Event on Espn2 is long gone. NHRA continues to pay Espn for its coverage of the Nationals Events just like back in the early days of Diamond P and NBC/ABC broadcasting. The problem goes back to TV ratings being low, and lacking variety. Pro Stock has always seen the short end of the stick when it comes to overall broadcast time which lead to Pro Stock Truck even going back to a class in Competition Eliminator. We need more people to write/ email the NHRA and Espn if you ever want to see any changes in the way NHRA National Events are broadcasted.

People are missing the point, I understand what we have right now. I was talking about how to improve our coverage. I am not a racer so I dont have a horse in the race. If 5-530 hours isnt long you could alway work around the commercials. Maybe, have sponsors buy blocks of time. Fix the fuel classes to speed things up a little so we can fit 16 in sunday for all the classes. Give me a break in Pa where its cold and snowy.

Re: live coverage?
 

Here is the real point. Because you are not a racer, you are talking about things that most of us have tried to deal with for many years. They used to show the final rounds of all sportsman classes during the Pro televised sessions. Not any more. Now it's just the finals during the Alcohol television series.
Here is another point, if you aren't a racer, why are you on this site? Just sayin'

I try to watch ESPN3 and listen to the live audiocast,but there is a delay between the two.I wish there was a way to have them synced up better.

Re: live coverage?
 

Live timing will always be delayed so that a racer can't have someone watch the computer and relay information to them about their race to get an advantage. Just keeping thing fair.

We aren't talking about the same thing.
I am talking about the live AUDIOCAST that does not sync up with the live ESPN3 video coverage.

(at least for me it doesn't,slight delay)

So, if I go buy this Chromecast thing, we will be able to watch our Stock and SS friends Bob Cruzen and Mike & Paula Cotten at Pheonix this weekend, on our TV?
Sorry if I'm not real clear about this. I'm old. I have zero interest in watching the pros since Mike Edwards quit.
