USAC LAUNCHES NEW MEDIA INITIATIVE


“USAC Media Live” will offer race fans unprecedented video coverage of USAC racing events, expected to span the entire spectrum of USAC’s racing calendar from the .25 Mopar Midgets all the way to the Traxxas Silver Crown Series and everything in between. The new web presence can be accessed on USAC’s home page (www.usacracing.com) or by typing media.usacracing.com

This new one-stop video shopping experience will debut with the spectacular Silver Anniversary “Indiana Sprint Week” action, featuring seven races in nine nights between July 13 and 21.

Among viewing options for fans will be a monthly subscritption which will offer the entire month of July action for $25 (or a $5 charge per race), which includes a $10 value live pay-per-view bonus for the July 26 J.D. Byrider “doubleheader” at Indianapolis Raceway Park, featuring the Traxxas Silver Crown and Mopar National Midget series.

Never before has this volume of USAC video been available and in such a wide variety of competition.

In addition, USAC fans will be able to view archived footage from the 1980s, 1990s and the past decade on this new platform.

“We are thrilled to bring this video presence to our USAC fans,” says USAC’s James Spink. “Not only will fans be able to view the most recent events, but they can also access USAC footage featuring drivers like Tony Stewart, Jeff Gordon, Ryan Newman, Mel Kenyon, Jack Hewitt, Steve Butler, Jimmy Sills, Tom Bigelow and many more.

Information regarding this new service can be obtained on the USAC website at www.usacracing.com or by calling the USAC offices in Speedway, Ind. at 317-247-5151.

Just jumped through all the hoops needed to finally get the right phone number. Its not a toll free number, and it sounded like the guy was working at a daycare (no pun intended).
It's not live, it's the next night. The only live show will be whatever is going on at Race Way Park on July 27.
Tried to explain to the guy how "tape delay" is really not the same as "live".
He kept telling me I wasn't understanding the concept. But I can't sign up right now because the website isn't right yet.
Huh, imagine that.

This is going to be cool though. I can wait 1 night no problem. We use to have to wait 2 weeks to get our Speed Sport News just to read about it. A bunch of spoiled brats these days anymore!

The price is right. But, personally, hate watching a full show on delay as by the time I can see it, I usually know what has happened by then.

James called the "IT" (Information Technology) guy. Later I got all the way to the end, and then it crashed and burned. Gonna be a good deal when I get past the finish line, though.

Steve, I tried using Internet Explorer 9 and had several problems... but once I used Google Chrome as my internet browser it worked fine.
