The suits

Soooooo what happen too being a NHRA member your suppose to be able to listen to live broadcast???????

rtr0id · 06-03-2016, 10:33 AM

surprised me this morning also when I went to listen to the audiocast. Then I got another kick in the nuts when I saw the "discount" for nhra all access. I paid full price for the service

I wanted to try a Weekend Pass for Epping to see how the service worked but since the event had already started the only option I was given was to buy a Season's Pass. No.

I looked at the time zone converter linked in the FAQ and it was stupid complicated. I could just set a system clock in less time.

I'm, like, an old dude and I could figure it out better than this. They at least need an Apple TV app. Do people actually watch the drags on a laptop?

Good question. The live audio feed was promised as a benefit of membership.

I always have (had) the audiocast on here in the shop when there is (was) a race going on. Especially an east coast race. Have for years. I can listen and work at the same time. I don't have time to sit and watch, honestly don't need the distraction and really don't want to pay $50 to listen. This sucks. Is it really that expensive to stream the track PA feed?

It does suck that they eliminated the free audio broadcast.
However, if you are at work today and do have NHRA All Access, you can still have the audio playing in the background just like you always did (just have to pay for it now).
You don't have to have the video up and playing.

I listened to the live audio while driving instead of the radio. Let me keep up when not at the races. Mike McMahan 2543 H/SA

NHRA sucks. They say we will give you 50% off for the year for this package hey dumbass the year is half over? So nobody listens to the audio casts? Why then would someone pay for it then? I am not going too. Nhra is not going to be around much longer.
