I`ve seen the `79 US Nats a couple times but this was the first time watching the `80 race. I`d much rather watch this stuff than the garbage that`s on ESPN2 now, I`ll tell you that. I`ve watched about an hour this year, that`s it. Probably won`t watch a minute of Vegas this weekend either.

I personally when comparing the old stuff to the new stuff I can watch both perfectly fine but what makes the old stuff so great seems to be the guys on the microphones.
