First, haters move on, I don't care.

Ever since Jr High I have tried to either watch or listen to the 500 race, in high school it was to listen to the Unsers whine about why they had lost.
Later it was away to make a Sunday at work somewhat enjoyable. In Alb. the race was always on KKOB 770 AM. But whereever I have been it has been available. Last year I missed because I didn't know they no longer carried it, listening to me is better than watching, does anyone have any links?
thanks
 
I heard Sirius is gonna have it on and it's also a free trial weekend right now.
 
I got this info for the Tyson vs Joke fight, mebbe try it for the Indy 500..?
Nothing to pay-

STREAM EAST
 
Best of luck to all the drivers

If Carb day was anything to go by, we may just see a record crowd at the speedway today.

Race will be way more exciting than Monaco I am sure. Extra luck to Larson attempting to race 1100 miles today

Will be hoping the second Rahal car does, data engineer is a protege of mine. He will go far in motorsports, makes me proud with every new milestone in his career.

Will split my time watching the 500, the final of the IPL T20, MotoGP, the last stage of the Tour of Italy - great weekend of sport.
 
I used to religiously watch it every single year.

Now I could care less.

It started with the end of the Speed channel (or whatever it was called; don't remember) and then when NASCAR committed suicide and the final nail in the coffin for all was the over-produced, over-CGI's, over-dramatized BS of today. Televised motorsports are all dead to me, even F1.

I don't even know who is running and don't care who'll win.

Exactly how much less could you care?
 
I like pretty much any form of Motorsport but not enough to pay a separate subscription to each flavor. If it’s on a regular channel, even with commercials I’ll watch and use the commercial time to do other stuff.

IRL isn’t my favorite but you have to respect the skill and balls (yes the ladies too) it takes to run open wheel at 230 like they do.
Their pits are amazing also, just like F1 or NASCAR.
 
We're talking about this one that's on network television for free, OTA right now, correct?

Once in a while i put on 1960s-90s NASCAR and remember when racing was decent.
 
Lived in New Castle, Indiana as a kid. Dad used to work security day of the race. We had 12 tickets in G stand which is in the short shoot across from museum in turn 2. We used to access the track with dad well before gates opened. The cannon would sound and those waiting to get into the snake pit would run through the tunnel. Very entertaining considering all they did was drink all night before. Watching coolers break and grown men deciding to chase rolling beers or race for the fence line was pretty entertaining. Went from 79-90. A lot of good memories. Spent time also at MIS in Michigan. Another super speedway with 1/10 of the seats. Drivers were accessible in the pits and garages. The memories!
