I like this idea.  I just checked out the site, I got the standings
update, but never any video coverage at all.  The window on the left
came up blank with a little icon in the top left corner after the
plugin was loaded.  Running WinXP with a cable modem.
This was between 9:45 and 10pm EST.  (the window on the right said a
"Race" session is in progress.)

Just reply to the newsgroup, Thanks!

  This is too cool.  I'm watching the cars run around Pocono and listening
to two announcers.  The video is slightly blurry...but heck!  This is
definately a step in the right direction.  Good work lads.

Opps, I didn't have real player installed.  I thought it would load
whatever it needed.  Anyway, went and got real player, and shockwave,
and am checking it out now.  I really like the idea, and the
announcers even!  It's pretty slow on my cable though.  (video
updating, and pausing quite a bit.)  No slow down or lag with the
announcers though.  I think you guys are on to something here. :-)
