Has anyone been able to watch the CB without interruption?  

Life has been a struggle the last few nights.

Wife or kids count? Smile 

But seriously the Flo broadcast hasn't had any noticeable issues for me at least.

I have had a terrible time with scrolling(circle spinning).  I watched a Iowa womens BB game on Peacock with no problem then switched to Flo.  Problem all night long.  I was watching on a lap top.  Any one have an idea,  this has been going on all the time with Flo.

That happened to me a lot a year ago, complained to Flo and they told me to look into the age of the Roku device I was using.  Updates do not happen with older models.  I spent 20 bucks on the cheapest Roku box, and hooked it up.  Lightning fast and NO issues since.  It is worth a try.  Good luck

yes, no problems  If you have a smart tv get a roku package, $30.00 or so and install it. Easy and simple to use.


Ascot was the greatest of all time..

West Capital wasn't half bad either..

Life is good...

Last night I had trouble accessing FLO via Roku box, went into options and saw that there was an update available.  I downloaded the update and has been fine ever since

Did Larson?

1. Roll over in his heat?

2. Not appear Saturday at all?

 

what's the difference between the heats and the qualifiers during the week? Other than the amount of laps?

Flipped twice on Thursday and called it good for the week!

Took the money and ran.

I watched a lot of the event. When you are retired every day is Saturday. The finals were kind of boring. Seavey started 2nd. Jumped out to the lead on the restart.  Buddy Kofoid finished second from the pole. Pursley finished 4th coming from the D Feature he passed 45 cars in the process. Never saw much of  that in the final as they were pretty much focused on the leaders on Flo.

I got my money's worth for the year for Flo watching the Chili Bowl event.

Aha... I skipped most of the heats & didn't really pay much attention until the Bs

Glad you enjoyed it Smile

Everyone is in the heats, top 40 in passing points from heats each nite make the qualifiers, which also earn points. Everyone else has to race their way up thru the C-Main

It can be confusing. This is their explanation (from 2020, but I think its still the same): "

Event Format

Qualifying Nights (Mon, Tues, Wed, Thur, Fri)

Heat Races

  • Drivers draw for heat racing starting position at 2 p.m. at chalkboard each day
  • The driver who draws lowest number will start on the pole of Heat 1, second lowest number on the pole of Heat 2, etc.
  • Number of heats decided by number of cars - 7-10 cars per heat race (8 Laps)
  • Advancement from heat race to features is based upon passing points earned in heat race and qualifying races. Passing points are based upon car starting position when the yellow light goes out prior to the initial start of the heat or qualifying race.

C Mains/Qualifying Races/B Mains/A Main

  • The 40 drivers earning the most passing points advance to Four “A” Qualifying Races; drivers in passing points positions 41-68 will go to two C Main races. The two C Main races will have 16 cars 12 laps in length.
  • The top four cars in each C Main race will advance to the back of the B Main races, going 15 laps. (Top four from first C Main to back of first B Main, top four from second C Main to back of second B main)
  • The lineup of each “A” Qualifying race will include an inversion of six cars. The top 24 cars in passing points will make the inversion. (The top point driver will start on row 3 of the first qualifying race, the No. 2 driver on row 3 of the second qualifying race, etc.)
  • The four qualifying races will have 10 cars each with the top 16 in combined passing points from the heats and Qualifying races advancing to the A Main.
  • The balance of the cars (24) from the “A” qualifying races will advance to two 16 car B Mains. The top four in each B Main will advance to the A Main, going 30 laps.
  • There will be 24 drivers in each Preliminary Night A Feature
  • The top two drivers in the Preliminary A qualify for Saturday’s A Main.

thats your opinion which you are entitled to.  mine is that his $10,000,000 a year nasnap contract and another mil or so a year off merch sales is enough to  last him for awhile.  he has always stated he doesn't do it for the money, he does it because he loves to race.  with over a hundred shows a year just for fun  i am sure that his foundation receives much of his winnings. thats my opinion...

ps.  he just finished a six night show in vado new mexico runnng modifieds and won the big show on sunday night, race on kyle...

Kyle Larson likely has an accountant to be concerned about the money. He seems to love what he does. Cannot beat that!
