Ole Bessy, aka my hundred-year-old laptop, gave up the ghost recently. RIP Bessy. Getting a new laptop, so I thought with that I'd join one of the streaming race service you folks use for watching races.
Is there one that would give me the WoO, ASoC, USAC, and other races in a monthly package? Or am I going to have to join several seperate ones to get that?
What service (site?) does everyone use?
Thanks!

I just added eight more dates to the Speed Shift schedule which puts us at 393 nights of racing for the year. Of all the major streaming services, I believe we're the only ones who carry races 12 months a year as well as host events from New Zealand and Australia. Although folks on here know us for our Sprint Car coverage, we actually cover pretty much anything, including some wild ice oval racing in January.
This Friday we'll have four live events plus two being recorded for On-Demand. Saturday, it's another four live events (one of which is the Dirt Classic at Lincoln Speedway) plus another being recorded for On-Demand and then Sunday we'll have another live event. That's nine live events and three being recorded for On-Demand in just one weekend alone, all for $40 a month. If you're a race fan, I think we are hard to beat in the bang for the buck department.
In regards to your technical questions, we have a Help Desk that can assist should you need it. [email protected] and they can give you advice or technical assistance.
Check out our schedule at https://www.speedshifttv.com/schedule/ and remember to click the "See More" button at the bottom of the page to reveal the entire schedule through the end of the year.

Hi Chet. Thanks for the info. I signed up for Speedshift tonight for the monthly plan. I bought a new hp Chromebook today. HDMI cable to tv. Download tested at 52mbs, but the stream has a jerky motion to the cars. I tried the other be Anderson feed and two archived Lincoln races. All the same.
YouTube videos stream fine.
Any idea what is wrong?
Thanks, Jeff

That's called buffering and 95% of the time it's a setting on the user side of things. Alas, I've been out of touch with the technical side so I'm not sure what may be causing it (it's usually browser related) but if you email the Help Desk, they'll get you squared away.
Oh, and we just added the John Fore Dirt Nationals at Merced Speedway on Oct 25-26, so we're at 395 nights of racing on our 2019 schedule now!
