Brian Cox was the first arrival, a little bit after 7AM.

Sano Dave showed about 15 minutes later, followed by Greg Van Peenen, a bit after that.

Some day slot racers will have RFID tags so we can locate them at any time (just like the Chicago Marathon which is also this weekend).
That's thirty minutes away. I'll be there in ten.

Jay and I dragged in about 12:30, after getting a later than planned start from AL yesterday afternoon. Stopped for the night a little south of Indy.

Mike's right...

I'll get a live feed going here in a bit. Mike's computer was running a little slow so I'm running a couple of scans to clean it up.

The feed should be great quality, as the raceway's connection is super-fast. Downloaded a clean-up utility and got 2.2 MB/sec speed! Wowza!

Gary,

I'm having trouble getting the Ustream broadcast working. Still banging on it....

OK, looks like the Ustream feed is up and running, but the broadcast is really slowing down my ability to view the feed from this end so I can't easily get the direct URL to post here.

Here's how to find the video stream:

Go to www.ustream.tv and search for "Sano 6 from Chicagoland Raceway". My younger son had no trouble locating it when I called him.

I would greatly appreciate it if someone would go to the feed and copy the direct URL to post here.
