.TV latest insult

[aakar]

Can’t believe, now that they have started to completely ignore moneybringing customer complaints about destruction of car audio, they have now added loud music to go with their loud announcers!
Just cannot fix stupid, beyond belief

Harve your 70 I'm 68. I suspect were not the demographic they have in mind and they hope their aren't many of us and we just go away! I'm starting to question the logic of spending $165 for a poor product.

Sadly, we are the demographic that understands exactly what is wrong with this service and what is needed to make it great for all ages,though.
Many much younger people like Monday Morning Racer or Les Mayhew (to name a few, many more on YT), are producing Drag Racing video with full audio.
This issue is more about NHRA broadcasting not understanding their own product, than us being to old

It's not funny but it almost makes me laugh that Clay Millican can do better car audio with his Go Pro. Of course it's his car we hear but all .TV has to do is use a in car microphone. Capps often has a helmet cam and you can hear is car too. It's not rocket science, or is it?!!

After watching Sunday eliminations not sure if I can listen to Jason, Courtney and Joe babble for 14 more races. I long for the days Alan Reinhart, Dave McCelland and Steve Evans.

Amen to that. My girlfriend walked in from another room and asked, "what's with that music?" It's now fed into the audio mix, not being picked up by the trackside mics. Big step backwards.

And again, Jason and Courtney feeling the need to comment on everything the other one says. It's like a competition with them.
Just talking constantly until the bottom bulb is lit. They miss a lot of action on the track, because they seem to be looking at their monitors, waiting for the chance to say "340 mph!". I'd like to hear what would happen if they took their stats away for one broadcast.

I'd never have thought I would be lowering the volume on a drag racing broadcast, but here we are. Just dreadful.

A few races back, the showed a clip of Hagen running the first 4 at a track, and I didn't realize there was an announcer until Bob Frey
said "and there it is" , or something like that. A real pro. Let those amazing machines do the talking.

Sorry, but when the cost of NHRA.TV keeps going up, seems the presentation quality is headed the opposite way.

Just ranting....

I always used to enjoy when on a single, AR would tell us to listen to the car, as a silent Nitro burning monster blasted down the track!
Or when we would be shown silent Cacklefests!
Or when we send email asking about when the issue will be resolved (I send every event) it simply gets ignored

Premium pricing brings expectation of premium service.
