Fs1 coverage (1 Viewer)

I have never been bothered enough with either network's show to gripe-but yesterday was the last straw. OMG--were they drunk? Screaming how Hight lost--oops I mean won-screw ups left + right during the bikes-with no graphics up to see the times they weren't saying. Terrible sound sync. I was watching close for the hoped for 200mph PS/B. Can't think of much they got right. I actually went + watched the Nascar race + went back later and did the dvd FF trick.

The graphics killed me and Dave did his share, I'm actually gonna say worse than Tony. Maybe Dave kept looking into the camera lens as was looking at his botched mustache job?

Thats what All Access was like last year. Drag Racing is not suited to LIVE TV. They need to show every lap but without the downs. Lose the fluff and give us the stuff.

Why do they wear suit jackets and business shirts. It's not the Bussiness channel, it's drag racing, the presenters look don't match the vibe of Drag Racing. NHRA/Fox Polos just like the good ole ESPN days. Spread out your just about eating eachother.
Reduce the level of the announcers mics and up the trackside volume pleeeese.
Wanna know how it should sound........watch the Bakersfield March Meet and position a camera and mic at the end of the Burnouts.

Just Get Brian Lohnes to do it, job done!

Agreed. Big fan of Mr. Lohnes.

They didnt show graphics because they didnt have time to post them because they breezed threw pro stock.

Did my annual watch of eliminations to see if it had improved and if I might want to watch again this year. Same answer as last year. I guess I'll probably try again next year .They drove me away from attending for a multitude of reasons, then over a period of time drove me from most telecasts till finally all telecasts. Now after the changes to the web site I don't even check to see who won. And they wonder why attendance, viewers and sponsor dollars are down.

I agree Tony and Dave keep me so confused. I wonder if they are being distracted by something. I don't remember Dave ever misspeaking so often. If all the info was on screen for each run I could ignore it. When it's not live you would think they could do another take. Is it one and done?

Brian, Alan, Joe, Mike Dunn, Bryan & Chad (Bangshift) Bruno they all cream on T Ped and Dave. Sorry Dave.

Zoom Zoom Zoom and I dont mean the Mazda ad. They could of shown the scoreboard, it's what Bangshift et al do. Brian in his Pro Mod bottom end interviews managed to give the times etc. No different to No Access last year.

Many of you probably know this but, I went to FOX Sports Go.com and watched the last session live. I also looked for Tommorow and found coverage starting at 11am. I am hoping this will be like ESPN 3 used to be.

i doubt that, else the wouldn't that make "All Access" useless ??

I watched Sat. Q and I thought that the camera angles were really good from the starting line and so forth. Much better than the start of the year. Unfortunately this is the first time in about 20 years that I couldn't make it to E-town but judging the weather here, It had to be Africa Hot walking around there and in the stands.

Was there Friday, perfect day. Had to head home yesterday after Q3, and it was getting real warm.

 

[mgty3whlr]

Here we go again like last week, NASCAR is over their time slot- 13 laps to go with another caution and it's almost 6:30. I wonder if Nhra is gonna streamline their show to fit in their slot like they did last weekend?

 

[ironpony]

YUP, they did, cut off PSM

my dish package has FS1 but not FS2. last couple weeks and i'm guessing this entire month i have FS2, it must be one this
month's 'free preview' channels......have noticed they replay nhra Q and elim. shows A LOT, at least sunday evenings and
monday evenings have been full of nhra rerun programming.....would be really interesting to see what kind of ratings numbers
these shows get? how many additional eyeballs are watching this rerun programming.....i know i did on 6/5, as i completely missed
all the programming the weekend of 6/3 & 4......watched again on 6/12.....don't like it that much to pay for it though when
it disappears again from my available channels.

I remember Mike Dunn saying that the Producers are constantly talking into their ear pieces, That may be the distractions.

I gave up on the cable b.s. having to be locked into a channel bundle that you don't watch and the channels that you really want to watch are at an additional cost. Mine was around $200 a mo. I stream my stuff thru the cable co. using wifi only. only costs me $49. a mo. now with live tv. And NO I am not a click bait or marketing spammer! Do your research people!

You could get Sling TV for $20/month and it has both FS1 and FS2 (and 20-25 other channels). I recently switched over to DirecTV Now because I have ATT Wireless service I get a $25 bill credit so for $25 I'm getting FS1, ESPN and a ton of other channels.

With both you do need a streaming device (Fire Stick, Roku, etc.).
