The time for this broadcast to start is at:

3:00est / 2:00cst / 12:00 pst

and will end after about 1 hour.

Keep in mind if issues come up as we are testing we may turn audio,
video, or even the stream on and off. again we will not be changing a
lot of camera views but this is because we are monitoring other items
at this point.

Please stay connected as LONG AS POSSIBLE ! The more people we can
have connected at the same time the better.

Thank You for your help and remember to go to: www.internetracing.net
and then click on racecast. If the stream is running it should appear
in about 30 seconds or less.

Currently watching it (#99 Chevy truck)... pretty cool race. Didn't know you
could go 3-wide at Richmond in the trucks. <g>

Race average updates (no yellows yet, so don't know if flag status will
update). Timing info still shows practise session (as does "Session"
itself). Are those supposed to update?

After some throughput problems with the stream this has suddenly started
working... 95 remaining....

The things I do for simracing.... (watching an AI race, for one... ;-))

And dropped out again with 69 remaining ("internal server error").

So, in conclusion, stream worked most of the time, timing of just 25 laps.
Though, if I hadn't been told to stay connected, I would have restarted the
RaceCast to see if that solved the problem with the timing.

No problems here. Connected at 3:00 EST, and I'm still connected now.
Didn't get disconnected. Video & Sound was smooth.

I didn't constantly watch (AI race was a bit boring), but there wasn't
any buffering problems while I was watching. (probably watched 50% of the
time)

Care to give us an overview of how you are broadcasting this?

Picture in picture was pretty cool. All you need now is a ticker for lap
times/positions and a live anouncer and you can compete with major
broadcast stations. :)
