Lucas Oil TV

[dch191]

If you just get the monthly then you’ll miss out on the Friday and Saturday night shows during Speedweeks (golden isles this weekend and east bay next), Saturday night at for the Show-Me 100, Saturday night at the clash at the mag, the NAPA Know how 50 at tri city, the final night of the topless, and the last night of the Knoxville nationals (first two nights in DoD),

You could get the monthly subscription for 6 months (that’s if you subscribed before golden isles and canceled after the first 30 days then re-subscribed the day of the next event and repeated that to maximize your subscriptions) of the year and see 14 of 23 events live and still be able to watch the events you can’t see live the next day for under $45.

^ that’s my plan. It kind of seems like there going to keep on with the mavtv thing so hopefully those Big races will be on mavtv as well. Either way I’m ready to get racing 👍🏻

Has the start time changed again???

[CrankedUp90]

It just started!! Live now..

[CIRF]

It just come on LORTV. They're running the track in right now.

Watching the cars running slow around the track it's clear just how twisted up the modern generic dirt late model has become. The right front gets further out to the right of the car every year.

If the stream doesn't work, you may have to "force stop" the app and try again. That's been a problem for me on FireTV.

Thanks for the heads up on the Firestick!

No stuttering or buffering, the best I have seen!

Now I know its not my computer or wifi!(I have the fastest ATT offers)

I streamed through our iPad that is connected to the TV and but for one time when the screen went black it worked flawlessly. I merely cleared out of the website and logged in again. This glitch took place during the 4 wide salute so we didn't miss a thing. We don't have the strongest internet download speed but it is fast enough to watch in HD.

Later we're going to log into the LORTV website and compare the picture quality to MAVtv to see how they match up. The announcing crew is adequate and not annoying. It seems like the guy working with Dilner has toned down the hollering and the silly upspeak stuff for which he's usually known while doing these broadcasts. Like it better this way.

I have the worst internet provider in the world. I will tell you my experience with both and you can make your own decision. I can watch Lucas on my tv thru my Roku. It may buffer 1 time in an hour but only for a few seconds of it does. I just watched the Chili Bowl and it only buffered 3 times.

I can purchase a ppv with DoD and about lose my religion because it buffers every 10 minutes. Again I blame that on my internet.

With Lucas, you can look at it like this. Just by getting it you will get 9 races from Speedweeks for $60.00. That alone is $6.66 a race. You can't go to a local race and sit in the grandstands for that kind of price. You get to eat your own food and have a clean bathroom too.

You get All the nights of the ShowMe, Clash at the Mag, Napa 50 at Tri City, the Diamond Nationals, all 3 nights of the TopLess, feature night of Knoxville, and the DTWC. ALL for $60.00. How can you not order it? I have it obviously, but if we are racing ourselves, I take my ipad and watch it at the track thru their wifi.

Can you get internet through your local electric co-op? The local co-op has started providing internet in this area,and it's supposed to be really good and reasonably priced.

Allen, as you suggested, we use a local co-op as our internet provider. They are one of just 3 options in our area. All three internet supplier options are basically the same delivery method. We have to have a receiving system that must be able to "see" the apparatus that transmit's the internet service. Our receiving antenna is on our walk up tower pointed at the top of a local grain elevator where the signal originates. As you might guess the 2 non co-op suppliers are very expensive due to the lack of competition. The co-op is by far the most used and most inexpensive for the quality and speed, but the speed is limited. We consistently maintain a speed of around 16 MBPS. Just 2 miles as the crow flies download speeds of 75 MBPS is available through the TV cable or phone service providers for comparable, or even lower, prices. We feel lucky to have what we have!

I think the co-op charges $49.95 for 100 Meg service. Seems pretty reasonable. I got a free upgrade on my cable internet to 100 Meg,but I only pull around 70 since the upgrade. There are more speed tiers,but I am good with what I've got. It very rarely buffers,but here lately 1080p 60fps videos just won't play. Used to be no problem when I just had 50 meg. Could be computer getting old also.

So I just got a tv with Roku on it, and I was looking at the Lucas Oil tv app. On the Roku it says a yearly subscription is 59.99, but the Lucas oil website says 99.99. My question is do you get all the live events for 59.99, and how long do they stay on there if I can’t catch it live?

[TDRacin®]

If it will let you sign up on Roku for $59.99, do it! As for replays, they stay on there forever and they usually upload them within a day or two.

Zero glad your stick worked better for you. I knew you would like it. And Allen 70 megs is good as long as you don't have a bunch of devices pulling off it you will never have a problem streaming live events. I've had Charter 100 Meg service and even if you have the best router available you rarely pull their max megs.. On top of that especially with Spectrum it seems a few times a month it will get slow and il do a speed test and it will be around 25 megs, so I just reset the router and that seems to fix it and itd be back up around a 100...

Wow! You guys are lucky. The highest download speed available out here in the boonies through any of the 3 providers available in our area is 60 meg and that package goes for over $70.00 a month even if you pay it by the year. There are content limits with rather pricey overage premiums on all packages offered by all providers except the provider we use. About 80% of our internet usage is business related so luckily we can write off most of the costs.
