Last Floracing Post, I give up.

So since there are no upcoming races listed on the ROKU app, it has been suggested that I just go to Floracing on my computer and check the schedule. Now I don't know who is in charge of these listings, but how hard could this possibly be? Here are the listings for this week. I've been told by Floracing that the times I see are for my time zone. Is there one start time on this list that is correct????? What a joke. Two races at Perris Auto Speedway on the same day, two different start times. And I guarantee neither start time is correct.

Do you have a HDMI cable that you can run to your TV from your computer? That's pretty much how I watch em all as I can't get the app to work on my TV. I can get LucasOil's to work.
Just wondering. Chuck

Chuck, my ROKU streams perfectly, that is not my problem. Knowing when to tune in for a race is. When I bought this ROKU there was a month of upcoming races listed, now they list the race the morning of the event. And it lists the start time as 1:30pm. So It was suggested I go to the website, it lists a bunch of upcoming races, not one has the right start time. Did you see the list I copied from the website for the next week of racing? Not one of them can possibly be correct. How freaking hard could it possibly be to get this right. I can find a 10 year old that can copy a list of races and start times to a web page. Floracing has become a joke. And yes I can crawl under my desk in my office, disconnect 8 wires from my computer, and 4 wires from my router, and drag my computer, my keyboard, my mouse and my router into my living room and hook it all back up with an HDMI to my TV. To avoid all of that I bought a ROKU. That's not the point, they sold everyone on Apple TV and ROKU to use their service, thank God I didn't buy a ROKU TV to do this with instead of a ROKU box which was $100.00. And they cant even get a list of upcoming races with start times on any of the devices right so I know when to watch, including their own web page.
What say you Kirk Spridgeon?

Its become a joke. A 10 year old can copy a list of events with start times to a web page. Apparently they only hired a nine year old. Crickets from whoever is in charge of this.

I have called nobody any names. it isn't rocket science to update a webpage. I have owned more than one in the past 25 years. It doesn't even require any HTML skills anymore. USAC sends a list of race dates with start times to Floracing, and someone updates the page. How can they possibly not get one start time right out of all of these? Its ridiculous.

Kali,
If you have a computer with windows 10, and a fairly new TV. You can open Microsoft EDGE(your browser) and go to the three dots on the upper right, click on it and choose "cast media to device". This allows what ever is on your computer to be shown on TV. It makes your TV a monitor. No HDMI cable needed. When you get to "cast media to device it will list what you can connect to, such as your TV, roku. When you want to disconnect go back to "Cast media to device" and choose the device you are connected to and choose DISCONNECT. When you list the devices in Cast Media to Device it may show your roku, you can connect to it. You would have to choose the correct line input you have the roku hooked up to. You wouldn't use the flo app. It just displays whats on your computer. Disconnect when done, just as if you would have chose the TV model. It works great no wires to trip over. |

you may just have to check the track website .In just a few clicks on red dirt raceway website I see gates open at 5 qualifying at seven racing 730. all central. sounds like 6 indeed would be a good guess at hotlaps and a good time to tune in.
