And live timing wasn't working yesterday either-I'm not sure it is working today
Damn newbie!
For everyone hitting the button to fire off a nasty flame for my rudeness, I AM KIDDING.
I think Greg's been online longer than I have, way before the interwebs and Netscape browsers.
It is a big improvement over years past.

Not us? Did you hire them? And you don't pay a membership to use it. Alan need a new web team? Contact me, we can handle it.

well NHRA Has a week off to cut a deal with a new Service for the Audiocasts. I thought it was best when they had it with Windows Media Player, I didn't even have to have my browser on to be able to listen to it and just used my Windows Media Player (I'm a NHRA Member anyways so it wasn't like I was "Stealing" audiocasts)

I want to resist being snarky about this, but it's hard.
It's 2012. I can get 1000's of radio stations on my cell phone over the internet. According to the incessant TV ads, everyone from TMobile, Comcast, and DirecTV can provide live broadcasts of all kinds of sports on my phone or my tablet while walking down the street with video and audio. ESPN can give us nearly live HD with all kinds of graphics and fancy editing within a couple of hours of the actual event.
Yet getting the PA from an NHRA event seems to be a really complex problem. 2/3rds of the time it's a dial tone or the beeping of a hangup. It comes and goes all the time. And when it does work, the audio quality is little better than two tin cans and a string.
I'm not sure NHRA understands the value and importance of the audio. For many hard-core NHRA fans, listening to the audiocast with Bob Frey and Alan Reinhart is the best part of race day. Sure the ESPN broadcast is fun to see, but there's few things better than a Sunday afternoon with those guys as the soundtrack while I work on our race car.
