I keep forgetting to ask this on race nights, but how many of you watch the race replays? The YouTube videos that is, not the in-game file.

And is this a valuable tool in any way?

I do and wish more would because if we got more views http://www.crunchyroll.com would cut me a quarterly check based on views and that would definitely help with server costs because it would definitely be donated for that reason

I watch every so often. I would watch more, but they seem to focus on the leaders only.

It is good to watch the fast guys, but to be able to see your line through a corner vs the fast guys would be a whole lot better.

I don't save replays, mostly because I forget, but I do save them if I think there might be a question.

The biggest issue I have is managing both the broadcast and keeping an eye on the field as an official so often the broadcast is left untouched.

However over the last couple I've tried to focus the broadcast on wherever the racing is happening, regardless of where they are in the grid. The last race at the TS Superdome not withstanding due to the small field, how was the previous race?

I'll continue trying to focus it on wherever the good racing is occurring.

I'm also trying to convince my wife to do it for the National races, but don't want to unless there is actually a desire for it.

wow duster! I thought all along that snow tiger was doing the broadcast while you kept your eye on the race. I thought it was focused on the front of the field because maybe she had a crush on speedy or rookie! but, if you're doing both, you are doing a fantastic job at it! . I don't know how you do it! I like to look at them just for S&Gs', but, seems like every time I'm covered is when I'm screwing up or getting beat up by another driver. but I think, without the commentary, it's hard for anyone other than ourselves to know what's going on there.

FYI: we killed the sailfish down in FL last weekend so I think i'll be going back again this weekend. but, I tried to download the IRP track in order to check it out. but, it seems to be a dead link.

talk at ya later!

I watch them every week, usually have them on in the background. It's a great thing to have.

I watch them. I find the ones that I actually race in more exciting to watch than the ones where I am watching from an official view.
