We bought the live stream from Ventura last night for the first time this season. It worked perfectly for us. Our internet speed is the minimum required for a smooth stream and we were a little worried that it may not be quite fast enough but it was flawless all night.

We thought the quality from Ventura was a bit better than last year which was just a bit jerky, very watchable but somewhat jerky. But, it also was free. As we said before, very smooth last night and the overall picture clarity was noticeably better than last year, but again, last year was free.

Given the overall quality of last nights broadcast I won't hesitate to buy it on the Saturday evenings that we're at home the rest of the season if all things stay the same.

Oh, and the sprint car feature? That was some great racing with Camarillo and Rutherford dukin' it out and swappin' the lead a couple of times in the later stages of the feature. Great stuff!
