Watch Eldora's Dream XXIV LIVE at DirtonDirt.com!

83.85 is quite a bit of money to not be able to see the whole race. If we are at the race, we can watch what we want. On ppv we don't even get a replay a lot of the times. Someone will take that business with better production and cheaper ticket. About the time you think, you have no competition, here come 5 with better product and cheaper price.

That’s the same price of a 3 day ticket. This is what Eldora has charge since the beginning of PPVs.

There’s no competition for PPVs at Eldora because Eldora and lately DoD(along with DirtVision) have exclusive rights.

This conversation gets dumber everytime it comes up. This isn’t hard.

Lol, I'll gladly pay 83.85 for my dad, my brother, my wife, my neighbor and myself to watch the race all in the comfort of my own home. I do understand being there is 100 times better but with my job it's almost impossible for me to go and I doubt I can take all those people there with 83 bucks and 2 cases of beer.

Husker and Mason

Very well said. I’m just going to do probably Saturday, $40.00 well spent.

[MI Dirt Fan]

I'll wait for Eldora to post the highlights on YouTube the next morning

Husker, I'm with ya. The same comments come up every year, and all ya can do is shake your head. It makes ya wonder if anyone even checks that stuff before they complain about It? Apparently not.

You are the self-proclaimed expert of all things dirt late model, get off your ass and offer us that cheaper, better product.

Or quit whining and let us enjoy the race.

I'm not stopping you from watching a race, or even enjoying it. Just about anyone can see the quality difference between LORTV and it's cheaper per race. If they can do it someone else can, on the other races. Sooner or later someone will figure out that selling in volume is more profitable and rights to races isn't permanent and advertisers may like a part of it.

One of the things for sales, is to make the buyer feel like he is getting more than his money's worth. From what we see, there are some that don't feel that way.If there wasn't a little truth in that, I would be commenting, not whining, according to you.

Some day the dirt ppv will be ferry profitable. I'm just a little too far over the hill to take it on. I can't even leave home for more than a few hours to go to a race. I'm limited to how long my oxygen hose is and I'm still deliberating on buying the ppv. As for myself, I would rather DOD fix it. I like them, but it seems they are charging me for the friends,relatives and guys at the bar,that watched for free.

[TackyTracker]

normally I'd be home watching with my computer but I might be tuning in at a friend's house and he has a Microsoft surface w/o the HDMI out.. Is there a way to get the broadcast using the surface?? Any help is appreciated...

[Mason87]

The reason lucas TV is cheaper because it's their own races they are broadcasting, DOD can only do so much with the price I understand some can't afford or don't want to pay that much but I myself feel likes it's a good deal.

You are asking about getting the broadcast onto a TV right? Your friends computer should at least have a usb port. You could pick up a usb to hdmi converter at best buy, maybe walmart or radio shack. May take some setting changes to tell the usb port to output.

Edit: Kind of expensive for a one time thing...

Planned on watching tonight, but should be picking up motor today so we can race tomorrow night.

I've wanted to get one of the PPV's for awhile, but I'm not very tech savvy so I'll wait on a night my brother can come over and we can try it out. I don't think the price is bad, and if I can't make it to a race I have no problem paying to watch it.

[Krooser]

Just too much for my budget....I'll be crewing at Luxemburg Friday night and I'll be a spectator at Shawano Saturday (using my rain out pit pass from last week).

The Dream is a neat deal but I'll wait for the race recap.

[TackyTracker]

thx Chris for the help.. I figured there had to be an adapter out there to make it work...

He’s a multi-millionaire, who owns the very series he has on his network. There really isn’t any competition for DoD or Lucas TV at this time. I think Lucas owns Mav too.

[Bubstr]

Just because Lucas is a multi-millionaire, doesn't mean he gives money away. It means he is good at making money. If you where to get into that business, Forest Lucas would be a good roll model. I appreciate DOD,for everything the do for the dirt on fan, but there is something wrong with the ppv.
