I would guess pay for view, the major networks seem to have their thumb up their a$$ concerning these things.

Any reason as to why Larson isn't running this race?

I don’t see how this is news.

Looks like a very strong field. I hope it will stream somewhere at an affordable price.

Larson says the race will be just as good without him, and that Christopher Bell will win by half a lap now instead of by a straightaway. LOL.

Larson will be racing the WoO event in Oregon next Wednesday instead, which I'll be at. Win for me.

2 women that raced Kyles Outlaw Showcase were able to make the schedule work out for them, Holly Shelton and Karsyn Elledge.

NBCSN will broadcast a recap package on Friday night. SpeedShift.tv will broadcast PPV both night, and I think the two-night package is $39.
