Lets face it a day at the track is a day at the track. It should not be made into a 2 hour made for TV special.

Oh yeah, Awesome pics Rev. Thanks for posting.
There is nothing untrue in what you say. The simple fact remains that in its current structure it is a terrible television event so the idea that the BC is going to draw in new fans is unrealistic. You can't have less than 4 minutes of action an hour and keep casual fans watching.
