So, hear me out.

Eldora doesn't offer video PPV from the Knight Before the King's Royal... Fair enough...

However, the race video (which is on Eldora's website) is a full-on production with a scoring ticker and multiple cuts to different cameras.

What gives? The video shows a PayPerView presentation. The Dream was shown live - I don't think the track is scared of PPV because they understand the added revenue that comes from a web broadcast. Is this a WoO thing? I can't recall because I was there - did DirtVision or The Cushion cover the WoO show from Knoxville?

I just don't understand the money behind a full production crew for a 5 minute YouTube recap video.

The PPV for The Dream was by Dirt-on-Dirt which covers dirt late models.  In fact, they are at I-80 Speedway covering the Silver Dollar Nationals.

The Knoxville Nationals are a non-sanctioned event, (regardless of what WoO loyalists think) so DV and the WoO have no say in the PPV matter. The Nationals PPV is provided by theCushion which Knoxville uses weekly. The Kings Royal is co-sanctioned....WoO and ASCoC.....that may or may not have had something to do with it, but I do have suspicions.
