Is it just like watching TV?: For the most part, although you computer screen is likely a bit smaller and the picture isn't quite as a sharp as some television broadcasts. As long as you have a steady high-speed internet connection, you should be able to watch smooth video throughout each night's program.
Is the live production available on mobile devices?: A computer and full web browser may provide the best experience, but most smartphones and tablets, including iPhones and iPads, can be used as well.
What's the racing schedule?: Thursday and Friday’s events are complete World of Outlaws Late Model Series racing programs (time trials, heats, consolations and $6,000-to-win features). Saturday’s program includes heats, consolations, non-qualifiers' race and the 100-lap feature paying $30,000-to-win.
What time does the production begin?: About 6:30 p.m. (Eastern time) each night. Hot laps are scheduled to beginning at 6:50 p.m. each evening.
Can I watch from work?: Maybe not. Many places of businesses use security firewalls on computer systems that prevent live video. If you receive a server message (something like rtmp://dirtondirt.streamguys.com:80/live) it's likely a firewall issue. Most home networks won't have such firewall issues.
Who will be announcing?: World of Outlaws announcer Rick Eshelman will do play-by-play along with Lernerville Speedway announcer Dow Carnahan.
Who is doing the production?: DirtonDirt.com co-founder Michael Rigsby will oversee a specially assembled production team that brings extensive broadcast experience.
