is there going to be a live vid at mir?
please post link!
getting pumped up lol...cant wait to see cars flying

 

No live feeds at MIR events

 

If you want a "live feed" your gonna have to drive/fly there like the other 20,000 people. Live feeds ruin events like this because everyone wants to sit back and watch but not spend any money. Go there buy tickets, buy food, support the track and support the sport.

 

if you're that excited you make the trip, it's worth it! God, i can't wait just booked my hotel.

 

its just not in the cards for some people, just because 20,000 people are expected to show up doesnt mean 40,000 people would like to come, id pay a small nominal fee to watch on my pc while im at family reunion or while im watching my 3 kids , or while im working on my car, ect,ect

 

I concur....plane tickets from japan are like $3k last time I checked

 

I would love to go, I'd love to race my car. Can't.

I have work, and other things.. So for people like me who can't take a week off of work to prepare, or a week to just fly up to watch a event, itd be nice to be able to support it by watching.

Here at work, all the tech's would love to watch the racing. Dont jump to conclusions because people can't go, somethings aren't able to be done.

 

ooo trust me id love to go as well, cant do everything spent way to much money allready as well

 

Some of us are international beyond our own choice, a live feed would be nice. plus a live feed does not substitute for being at the actual event, nothing can replace being there. even if we do not get a live feed please give us after event videos of the important people. LOL.

 

there is always is after the event vids...but it seems like the live feed every year is like a supersecert thing...

 

so there is a live feed?

 

there has been past i belive...and there has been a like a live chat that also seems to be a secert thing as well.....we live in a world full of troll's lol most of them are from yellowbullet i belive ahhahaha

 

I need to come home.

 

Yes I think there is a lot of interest "outside" the country and with the recent problem with flights in and out of the region I think it's a big ask for those travelling from abroad. A live link would help support the sport as those of us not able to travel will be able to feel part of it in some way, can only be a good thing in the long run, please don't loose sight that there are many avid supporters and racers following that don't reside in the US, this is one of the most talked about events within the sport (Globally). Living off live snippets from those lucky enough to attend speaks volumes really, should maybe think about future events.

 

Last time I checked you can watch live timing, so you see who is staged, and watch as they stage at the lights, and the increments as they make runs. Not as good as a feed, but fun to watch if there are specific people you want to watch. You can even select certain racers, and it gives you a cue when they are about to run.

 

whats the link to that above? or is it just the mir website?

 

I hope someone provides updates, i haven't had a day off in 2 weeks and this weekend won't be any different. I'd love to hear what's going on up there though.

 

If the livefeed was the same price as general admission what would be the difference if we show up there or not? We are still supporting the event. Someone should make it happen.

 

I ill have updates on my fan page www.facebook.com/CCCRacing and will post up iphone5 videos also!

 

A live feed would definitely help draw in more fans to the sport, we have a few customers that are slowly getting into the drag scene and something like this would be beneficial for them to watch live or in general ( same as last year we plan to buy the dvd and play it in our showroom ) . I'd have no problem paying to watch the live feed either and I'm sure others agree with me on that. Down the road if it picks up and stuff starts to get coverage again on tv, it wouldn't be much of a difference, it wouldn't hurt the sport. Although I'm sure the venues would get some type of money back from it.

I agree about supporting the venue, but I disagree about it ruining events. This comment reminds me when I was a child and never got to watch a Blackhawks home game, the owner thought if he put them on tv people wouldn't come to games, which wasn't the case. If we had the time to close the doors here and fly down we would, the event is gonna be huge and amazing, I"m more so looking at it from a stand point of people that are slowly getting into the sport and taking a trip is out of the question.

...the link to normally be able to watch live timing. But MIR isnt a part of this site. So for us that have jobs, other commitments and cant just make the trek across the country cant watch lol. I would personally pay to have a live stream available online.

 

Bummer, I could have sworn that MIR was on that site in the past.

 

it was on there in the past i remember it was....and last year it wasnt on that site either...there was talk of live feed last year but it was hard find or was just a rumor

 

http://www.grs-motorsports.com/ website (Puerto Rico drag racing site) were pretty quick with there info last year.

 

Hows the damage in the area ?
