I'm pissed. I was in Vegas all day yesterday and had no idea the Gordini was runnin' the race. My only shot to see the Gordini in person.

Thanks Will! I will be here as much as my work day allows.

Thanks! It looks like they are up to something. Who knows, it might be good. Looks like there might be a type of radio show too.

I know there are technical hurdles, but the day is coming when following a desert race online will be a full experience.

Maybe someday all the cars will have in-car cameras - whoever wants to maybe. The driver or the team could shut off the camera if they feel they need to. Perhaps they are about to bump the guy in front of them and they prefer not to broadcast it.

Right now it cost too much money to create live feeds. But someday it will be inexpensive. MavTV already mounts a live feed camera in one or two of the motocross bikes.

But then that's for a 20-30 min motocross moto, on a closed course. Bigger problems arise when considering camera feeds on a 500 mi, one way race course. I still say the day will come.
