Re: Do updates keep you away?
 

I can also say going to the track is more than the racing for me. Its the people (Racers and fans) and atmosphere. Updates could never keep me away from that.

I have some favorites but its hard for me to root against anyone. If someones making moves and moving forward, I cheer him on,

One of the best runs I seen was at Bloomington in the Sprint last year at the Powri show when the track was heavy. Updates could never explain Schurenburg jumping the cushion, Running four in the fluff and coming from 17th to third before he slipped off the track.

If you have to ask that question, Chris, then it means that you don't really know race fans. You may walk around and talk at them, but you really listen to them.

I was asked to post this. Figured I'd get some feedback.

The premise is a little insulting to a whole demographic of people who work hard all week and spend a great deal of the money they earn chasing races. And put a whole lot of $3.75/gal gas in their cars to be able to do this.

Updates do not keep me away. If anything they make me want to be there more.

I go to races and check the updates when I get home to relive the event I just saw. Thanks to those who take the time.

Not at all Chris. I have to work tonight (2nd shift) or I'd probably be there. It's simple...if you can go to a race, you're going to go. If you can't, you can't. Updates just keeps all of us fans informed on everything that we unfortunately are missing out on.
Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, beats being at the track and taking it all in.

Absolutely NOT! I get there when I can. I follow a lot of the action in Indiana on the live updates when I can't make it.
Like last night for instance. It killed me to not be at the fairgrounds. But now that I t's been moved to Thursday, I would have had to of taken two days off to see that race. I chose to stay at home and watch updates.
Thanks to all that do the updates!

i stayed home a few weeks ago not wanting to risk the weather at Eldora, the next morning i watched a great video recap still laying in bed. Yes things have changed a bunch with the internet, but there is nothing like being there.
