I live 1500 miles from Knoxville and have a career that I depend on for income. I love sprint car racing and love the live streaming PPV from Turn2 media. I don't mind paying I would love to be there but couldn't get vacation as its one of the busiest weeks of our business year. Please for the love of god STREAM SATURDAY'S PROGRAM LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO EXCUSES NO BS about TV deals and ticket sales Give the ppl what they want. Unless someone wants to jet me up there I'm gonna miss the Super Bowl of the sport I think about 365 days a year and that hurts me to the core
More weight, more regulation, more similarity in the
cars.... that will ensure plenty of thrills for years
to come. Only the most average talent behind the
wheel will be needed with such awesome equipment on
the track!

You should be venting your frustration at Knoxville Raceway, not T2media.
The track owns and sells broadcast rights, and the track has chosed not to webcast Saturday night's program.

it seems that the track has put the ka-bosh on any live video feeds from anyone for sat night. i guess we should be glad we get to listen to it.

I asked turn2media this question and here is the reply...
Believe me we and the track wanted to do the live stream on Saturday night, but we are not allowed to due to TV contracts. Unfortunately we are unable to stream the main event night of the Nationals. SPEED TV has the broadcast rights to that night and they are filming it for a tape delay broadcast (I believe 2 weeks later). We tried very hard to get it, but SPEED TV wouldn't budge. Thanks for asking,
Ian

speed tv says it was the tracks choice to not broadcast live on tv on sat. doesn't make sense that speed would not let the PPV vid go out since the tape delay is two weeks after the event.

I mentioned that a few days ago. I assumed that's why they couldn't stream Saturday. It's all about exclusive rights.
