I thought it was a good job of broadcasting under different circumstances.It was an exciting race and Ian deserved to win the first 27 laps but Gravel showed how good he is.Schatz Sweet and Larson just didnt qualify well enough and you never heard much about them but they passed many cars for good finishes.One of my favorites Lytton ran a good race.

First time I've ever watched a race on DirtVision, but I'll be doing it again.   I just hooked it up to HDMI on my living room TV and it was really good.   If the drone could have just flown under the back straightaway stands for me it would have been even better.   

This is what I do, too.  Can't wait for their future App to drop for Apple TV, Fire Stick, etc. 

DirtVision is a great product and a great value in the monthly package.  

Even being the first race of the year with cool, wet conditions they put together a track with multiple grooves.  It was far better than I had hoped for.  

Thank You to Knoxville Raceway, the WoO, Marion County Fair Board, Dirtvision, anyone who sponsored the event, and to all who helped make it a success, especially the teams and drivers, some of whom towed a long way to take part.  I think we all needed that, I know i did.

Can't imagine what all those empty stands at Knoxville must look like.  It's a weird world we're in right now and congratulations and thanks to Knoxville for pulling it off.

On a much smaller level, in California the Marysville Raceway Park will give it a go tonight with similar cionditions.  The winged 360 Sprints, Crate Sprints, Sports Mods and Hobby Stocks are the program with no spectators.  Pretty sure they're the first in the state to try it.  It'll be shown on speedshiftttv if you're interested. 

Marysville is one of only about half a dozen tracks in CA that are not on state fairgrounds and will be able to do this as the fairgrounds tracks have about a zero chance of opening for a while.

I've seen many races at Knoxville when the track was heavy and the air was cool.  Heat races usually include no passing and often times, the feature doesn't even widen out.  Last night was great.  I was not expecting that much back and forth all night long.  

Not only the feature, but the heats were good too

Gravel & Schuchart are the up & coming stars, IMHO

It was funny when they announced "Williams Grove is giving $1,000 to...." I thought, wow, thats classy. Then they finished; "...to the best Pa. Posse finisher"... couldn't help laughing! ;)
