I love short track racing (Taylor's Version)
They're all over the place ... especially in NBC's package.

That's eastern time. Aren't they in the central time zone? What time is sunset in Indy in late July? I think everything will be just fine.The Brickyard 400 starts at 3:30pm????? Are they installing lights?
We get worked up about everything here. And I mean everything.There not a big difference in start times in 2015 from 2014, most of the start times are close to how they were in 2015, NBC times are pretty close to the same times as well, nothing to get worked up over
Yeah, I am aware of this, but nothing new, its just how us NASCAR fans are, its in our blood to get worked up over the most littlest of thingsWe get worked up about everything here. And I mean everything.

I'm hear ya. I concur.Start the damn things at 12 PM and 6 PM central time. Cause I said so.

They did, Our biggest fan must have forgottenHmm, I though they did away with the standard start times a couple of years ago. Shows you how closely I've been paying attention.
This will only bother me if DISH can't get its program guide correct, and my DVR misses part of the race. I mean, I had enough problems when the start times were "standard".
Found this, hopefully it will be updated as Daytona gets closerWell this was a stupid move. Can they at least start publishing when the green flag waves? They say that the race starts at 2pm (or whenever) but the actual racing doesn't begin til 2:45pm.

I honestly couldn't remember for sure, but thought I heard something about it some time back.They did, Our biggest fan must have forgotten
I am with you as I have not watched a race live in years. It is also amazing how fast you can watch a race when you can FF through the commercials, the talking heads and the laborious cautions or red flags. Sometimes I watch the race early in the morning the day after it has taken place.
Time of green flag is always on Jayski.Well this was a stupid move. Can they at least start publishing when the green flag waves? They say that the race starts at 2pm (or whenever) but the actual racing doesn't begin til 2:45pm.

YEP.I like having the scanner running alongside the race broadcast when I'm watching from home. It adds to the broadcast tremendously.
Occasionally I have to watch it off of my DVR'd version but it's not nearly the same experience.

Thanks!
When we lived in Hawaii, try getting up on a Sunday morning just before the race that started at 7am. Instead of cracking open a beer, I was fixing Coffee and making breakfast. . . . . . .no sleeping in on Sunday's during the racing season. The one good thing about it, the race was over by 11am and we'd have the rest of the day playing at the beach.
I've been there several times but don't have the words to describe it. Years ago I went to the old standby of "you'll have to go see for yourself". It's that special.Lucky.
I must get my ass in gear and make plans for a vacation there. Been wanting to for years. Just hasn't materialize.
They did do the standard times for a couple of years and then it changed again.Seems to me that just 2 or 3 years ago, Brian said that all the races, except maybe a couple, would start at 1:00. Something about listening to the fans, blah blah blah. I couldn't find it, but I'm pretty sure he said it.
It was announced in 2009 that they would be going to standard start times in the 2010 season.Seems to me that just 2 or 3 years ago, Brian said that all the races, except maybe a couple, would start at 1:00.

I knew I remembered it from somewhere. Still listening to the fans, five years later.It was announced in 2009 that they would be going to standard start times in the 2010 season.
"NASCAR fans have been asking for earlier and more consistent start times, and we are making this change for our fans, beginning with the Daytona 500 next February," said NASCAR chairman and CEO Brian France in a statement. "We are revisiting our sport's tradition of earlier green flags, and the added consistency will make it easier for fans to know exactly when the races are being televised."
