I just bought this today expecting to watch last nights USAC Osky race. When I clicked on Osky, it showed 2009 race, not exactly what I expected 
I watched some of 2009 Osky race, but it kept freezing and I had to restart over and over again, lost count of how many times. It was very hard to forward or rewind, it would just jump ahead or not move at all. But the racing and coverage was very good.
Than I tried the race from us36 raceway (the last one on the list) which was last Sunday I believe. It than says I have to purchase this one and that my membership/id does not have access to this stream. WTH I just bought it, how do I not have access.
I hope this is all a glitch. For $25 with delap, I expect a little more. When i watched Knoxville LIVE Sunday Night for $12.99 the broadcast was near perfect, no glitches, nothing. I was pleasanly surprised how smoothly it worked. So my expectations for a tape delay on USAC was high, guess not anymore.
By the way you can catch the wed-fri action at Knoxville this week, but I think it is $25 a night.

Doug, talked to someone from USAC earlier this afternoon regarding last night's Oskaloosa race and they said it would be available, but at the time they were having some problems with a slow connection.

Thanks
Just got to make sure I don't read any threads relating to this race
To me it will be a live race, (just tape delay, kinda like the Olympics).
Still wonder what's up with not being able to connect to the last race.
In the future they should list races by dates on the website, gets confusing at times. I saw part of a Las Vegas race, and than it ran out of tape with about 10 laps to go. I figured that was going to happen when i only saw 8 minutes, but what's the point putting up half a race.
USAC PitPass is a great idea, but for me there seems to have a few too many glitches and/or hiccups. But for $25, I've already seen two great main events and I haven't even looked at the ISW races. The midget race from Blomington was real racy when I looked at a few clips. Anyone who likes usac sprints and midgets races from past should check it out. I figure when I go to Santa Maria or Perris, I figure I spent over $100 for the night. This should keep me busy for a month.

You need to contact them about the other races. I just clicked on the last race and it worked fine.
Agree on watching them. Without finding out who won, it is like being live. I try to watch em' early in the morning before somebody lets me know what happened. If it works, and it has for me so far (fingers crossed), it is a well spent $25.00.
