Brick Slayer, Joe Gibbs Racing on track.

Being at the race I didn't really get to see our television coverage. And I wanted to get everyone's opinion of our "draft tracker" feature

I pretty much watched the whole thing. I have the Direct TV hot pass so I was switching from Tony's car to espn most of the time. After all the wrecks and cautions where done the race got pretty good. Jimmie Johnsons wreck was kind of scary until I saw him get out of his car. Besides that I was surprised Juan Montoya ran so well. I must say it was one of the better races I’ve watched this year.

Yeah it was a great race. There were some great passes. Gordon's pass on the outside of Harvick near the end of the race was sick.

I thought the draft tracker was kind of cool. But how do the really know that's what the air is doing? It kind of reminded me of when the NHL put computer chips is the pucks and it was like lazar hockey. I'm really not sold on it yet. But who knows it might grow on me. I thought when they broke down the things that could have gone wrong with Earnhardt's engine the graphics were great witch it made it pretty interesting.
By the way were you there on Sat SS? My girl friends nephew made his first Bush series start. His name is Josh Wise and he was driving the #22 Dodge Family Dollar car. He came in 19th which isn’t too bad for a rookie that started 29th. I missed the race which really pisses me off!!! Did you see it?

I didn't make it out to the Busch race. I was at the Brickyard all day trying to handle some last minute issues before the race on Sunday. I've heard Josh is pretty good. He raced won the USAC title last year didn't he?

I don't pretend to know how exactly Draft Track works. It's a cool concept but I think it'll take time for our announcers to really be able to explain to everybody, not just race fans. The explanation of Junior's blown engine from our DISH Tech Center was pretty neat. We're going to be doing a lot of cool stuff with that online

Yea he won the USAC in 2006 racing for Stewart. This year he is racing for Michael Waltrip mostly in the Craftsman Truck Series. But hopefully they will start getting him more BUSH races.


I’ll be looking forward to seeing more on the DISH Tech center in the future. I thought was the best and most unique thing on the ESPN broadcast.

By the way SS it sounds like you have a pretty kick ass job.:biggthump

Ouch, good luck. I hope you can get a little bit of sleep tonight.

Sorry I can't be of any help...I caught the last 20 laps or so, and tend to ignore anything flashing or floating across the top of the screen, unless I'm specifically looking for something.

that's cool SS...perks of the job.

i heard that Tony had let the BS fly, so to speak...although I dont know how they'll handle it, since the race was on basic cable not over the air...and they are treated differently when it comes to language...

I knew this was coming and soon as he said Bull Chit live on the air after the race.
