Charlie Powell South Carolina Memorial 400, Dale Jr

[Spotter22]

Did not make the field but was given the Promoters option. Of course I understand why, the stands are packed with Jr fans.

 

[StandOnIt]

Why don't they give him the pole lol.

Live coverage on Flo be like:

[aunty dive]

Brutal feed. Ghosting, buffering and when neither of those is happening I looks like there’s Vaseline on the camera lens.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Literally unwatchable.

Pirated streams on 56k dial-up in the 90s looked better than this ****.

Here's the 1995 Myrtle Beach 400.



Better picture quality than whatever this is.

Paid about 175.00 for a year and this crap is what I get? Flo has the Derby this year, God help us

Not enjoying tonight's 8-bit throwback?

10 minute “race break” now 30 minutes old. Do clocks run slower in the Eastern Time Zone?

Worst Flo production I’ve ever seen. Technically inept personnel on site. When the video cleans up for a couple of minutes, the audio goes out. Race-altering crashes do not yield a single frame of replay and the announce team “didn’t see that happen”. Race control, if you can call it that, is just as bad.

And the series co-owner qualified 53rd out of 56 cars that took time and started 41st on a provisional while 15 teams went home.

Track is having MAJOR technical problems.

This is why I do NOT give sponsor reps and non-essential employees from NASCAR or any touring series access to track WiFi. You can only have so many people before you don't have enough bandwidth. And I actually have a backup connection ready to go on the fly at all times.

Not a CARS Tour race. He got a provisional because he's literally the sole reason the stands are packed to capacity.

 

[aunty dive]

My mistake.

Tell that to the guy who qualified 41st.

 

[aunty dive]

For a 40 car field.

Race restarted while Flo was off air. Video finally came on without announcer audio … faint engine sounds in the background. No ticker onscreen now. No way to know what lap they’re on and camera shows only the leader and Junior - lap after lap.

Lap 195 and ticker re-appears absent the name of the leader - the box is blank. I guess they can’t spell Lapcevich.

Track provisionals are basically promoter's options.

Everyone knows the deal going in.

The ticker is pulling data from Race Monitor, which is not very good for broadcasts.

NASCAR and all the streaming partners actually recommend using MyRacePass which is much better across the board.

 

[HoneyBadger]

There’s no need for that gigantic box on the screen.

31 to go. Junior pits from 2nd spot for fuel? during a yellow.

Race restarts. Jr still in the pits, hood off. Race restart called off. LOL

GREEN, GREEN, GREEN. YELLOW! Southern Jesus still on pit road, but the fantabulous BUDWEISER 8 appears to be done for the night in spite of the best efforts of whoever is promoting this 3 ring circus.

Treyten Lapcevich, a nice Canadian kid from Ontario, takes a big W.

 

[aunty dive]

And Junior E put on a helluva show from the back to 2nd before suffering a mechanical. He didn’t have enough to get to the 77 in any event.

I’m sure the cult members are expressing their emotions in a suitable manner.

Happy for him and Chad Bryant. Chad's a great guy.

Every subscriber should get a free pass for the race next year and I'm gonna be offering that suggestion to a friend that works with flo. Probably wont happen, it sucks having no recourse.
