Great, except the only streaming price mentioned was Lincoln's and your complaint was that streaming cost too much.

Yes, you are right, I was thinking Port would be the same price and yes Lincoln was too much too!
The streaming from port the Thursday race only is 24.95 and if you buy both 44.95 = RIPOFF! That is more than the price of admission if you would go both nights.
Let's go Sprint Car Racing!
Knoxville - Best Track In the USA!
Eldora - 2nd Best Track in the USA!

24.95 is more than I will pay for a speedweek race but I think 19.95 was reasonable and the broadcast was fantastic. Who knows how much it costs the production team to put on a high quality live stream but I doubt they are making a lot of money. I'm just glad they do it. I don't like doing long drives and dealing with huge crowds anymore. BTW, I think it's a little bit of a rip off that some speedweek tracks now charge $25 admission and still only pay the minimum $5000 to win purse. Look at the crowds the last few nights, they should give a little more back to the teams putting on the show IMO. Every team that runs all 10 nights should get at least a $1000 bonus from the point fund. That's a lot of races and a lot of money spent. There's a lot of money being made during SW but it's not the teams who are making it. Since Port and Lincoln get 2 dates and 1 of them being a prime Saturday date, they should step up and pay 10G for 1 of the nights like the Grove does. This is 2017, not 1997.
