Here is the issue....you can't expect video quality because of dropping or latency(delays) because you are using a cell phone. You are at the mercy of the covereage area, if that is how they are actually doing it. Call the telephone company or a network provider and get the appropriate high speed connection before the intended race. Make a deal with the provider to trade advertising for the service. Find an Indiana provider who will work with you at all the Indiana tracks. It's not that complicated. I don't think a data link would be that hard for tracks to provide on thier own if needed and not that expensive.
I understand the frustration. USAC is putting thier name on this so people commit time to watch and expect some type of quality.
More thought and planning needs to be committed, and if needed funding.
No doubt fans would pay, there is no reason a workable solution can't be found. USAC has a product fans want, find a way to give or sell it to them. Do it in a professional manner.
I am sure the guy who has been doing it is trying with the resources he has and we appreciate seeing what he has done. It shows there is definately a market if nothing else.
