SPEEDtv.com will continue ALMS coverage from Sebring via the on-board pass when the network goes to NASCAR programming from 1pm - 3pm. Camera 1 will switch from the helicopter to the race feed. ON BOARD PASS can be seen at http://gms.speedtv.com/ONLINE/.

Why can't speed fix this audio issue? The commercials DO NOT have the same problem!!!!! Why can't the get the feed coming from Sebring corrected????? This is ridiculous! I watch NASCAR as well and have never experienced this Sh....... Just goes to prove, if its not nascar speed doesn't care about the product they produce.

I am happy to see Peugeot and Astin Martin at Sebring, but could you also mention the Ford GT in GT2. With the Ford GT back at Sebring after almost 40 years, it seems like a comment could be in order. Thanks.

My guess it has something to do with the high wind... wobbling the satellite feed from Sebring to Speed TV... and it is too much phase variance for the signal to be fully corrected.

NTHFINITY,
I appreciate the input, however I can't agree that the wind is that strong. I have watched many of races and golf events from around the Country with starch stiff flags and no issues like these! The flags in the background are not has straight out as the flags at Nascar Daytona, where winds where 25 knots. I am an hour outside of Sebring and would guess 10-15 mph. This is nothing, but what do I know? It just sucks.

Sure thing... 15 mph shouldn't be enough... If i were that close to Sebring, I'd be there wink

I just turned on radio Le Mans on the web and muted the TV (http://0157.org/)

The broadcast quality of the 12 hours of Sebring sucks, man.

When your this close there is always a pull to go for the day, however the party is the draw and without an RV as home base to can suck. We race at Sebring almost once a month so I am more interested in seeing the lines these guys take around the whole track. That is impossible when your there.

RallyMonkey,
Why doesn't the OnBoard Pass site work? It only pulls up OnDemand. Does anyone have suggestions?

I'm so happy to find others that here the poor sound quality too. I thought I was crazy.

I fully agree that Speed only puts the $$$Bucks into NASCAR events. AND. . .I can tell you from experience that the crummy uneven sound is NOT the wind. With wind, you hear a 'crackle' during the void in the sound. This is a true void in when the sound breaks. It is caused ONLY by a break in the transmission. An electrical problem, not environmental one. An a very annoying

I have arrived at the point where I just turn it OFF. Do you hear that commercial sponsors? When I do that, I don't hear your commercial. I even watch your commercials when I play back the DVR version. But not when I turn the darn thing OFF! Maybe if a few good sponsors CANCEL, they will fix it.

OK, enough yelling and screaming (well, just here anyway). Oh wait, they jsut switched to NASCAR and Burnes, Bergeren and Hammond aren't cutting out. Although if Hammond cut out, I wouldn't mind as long as it was permanent.

Hope someone is listening.....
