B/J broadcast this year

[70rs]

....sucks! They are doing about three minutes of coverage followed by ten minutes of commercials. I hope that changes for the Friday thru Sunday coverage. Anyone else notice this?

Agreed. I can't stand to watch it live. Drives me nuts. Kinda like trying to watch poker on TV where you see 2 hands and then a player bio and then a commercial. I record the thing on my DVR so I can skip the commercials and cars I have no interest in.

That is exactly what I did yesterday. I am watching it now. But I would still like to see the rest of the cars go through. And up until tonight they were not doing the video feed on the Speed web site. So the first two days are a waste. Yeah, cheaper cars but still fun to watch.

Bummer for that guy!


I just saw The Red Witch staged in line to go up soon. Can't wait to see it go!

DID the witch sell yet???

No, it is #734. They are on #730 right now. I hope the place doesn't blow away before it gets to the stage!

Looks like the Corvette prices are back down to a more realistic level. A convert '67 427 restored, numbers matcing, red, white top....87k. Those were well into the six figure range a couple years ago. But the PT cars are starting to get some love and bring good money, depending on the build quality and parts included of course. They are still calling cars with nice wheels and lowered "Pro-Touring" though.
