    Saturday East Bay Broadcast Discrepancy

    So Dirt Nation is advertising on their Facebook page they have exclusive rights to all coverage at East Bay. Lucas Oil TV otoh have Saturday's show listed as being shown live as part of their subscription. After going back and forth with some associated with Dirt Nation on Facebook, they promise they will be the only one showing East Bay Saturday. I sent Lucas Oil TV an email about it with no replay as of yet.

    This would be disappointing if they don't deliver what they advertise and after their poor coverage of the Chili Bowl kicking off the service, I'm not so sure this is worth the price.

    Just be careful not to say negative things on social media about the sport. That would make Kenny Wallace very angry. LOL

      You paid $6.99 for a month and already got all the nights at Golden Isles... All other PPV are $20+ per event..

        Do wa? I paid $60 for the year and I get anything they show! If you paid $6.99 for the month, you get anything else they show for the rest of your monthly subscription!

        They are advertising East Bay Saturday.

          I checked Dirt Nation and when I click on their link for race on 2/13, it's not available to purchase while the Thursday and Friday races are. I assume that means they aren't doing that show. If they aren't, I can't find any place to buy it. Since Lucas still has the 2/13 race on their schedule, I kinda doubt Dirt Nation is covering it.

            What he is saying is all 3 Races at Golden Isles (with very little problems) cost you less than what you will spend on Dirt Nation for one race... Lucas is the Best deal out there as far as price....but go ahead and bad mouth it so we all can either not watch or pay $20+ a race
            Only in racing does a person knowingly put on a dud show, and then blames everyone else for not appreciating their dud show.

              I paid for the 5 nights with Dirt Nation and intended on getting Lucas Oil TV for the Saturday race, but now it says Ive already paid for saturday with dirt nation. Hoping lucas plans on broadcasting. Kind of sick of hearing the dirt nation guys put down the lucas series all week. They even went out of their way to mention that mccreadie, richards, and lanigan were heavy hitters because they are former world of outlaw champions, no mention of any Lucas oil champions lol.

                I think there might be a pissing match between Lucas and Dirt Nation. I have watched the dirt nation broadcasts all week. On Monday night everything was cool they showed victory lane. Then on Tuesday night they said due to a dispute with the sanctioning body they were not going to shoot victory lane and said to go on their facebook for interviews with the top 3. I know in years past they would never broadcast the Saturday night show. Now this year they claim they will be broadcasting it and Lucas says they will be broadcasting it as well so I am not sure what actually is going to happen at this point.

                    But some fan posts something negative on Facebook and people blow a gasket. So frickin' retarded.

                      I'm pretty sure dirt nation took a pic of Lanigans car Monday, and tagged Steve Francis in it. That was enough for me to wonder if they really knew what was going on.

                        To quote James Essex, "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!!" LOL

                        People make mistakes. I noticed quite a few during the Lucas PPV. The most notable being Moyer Sr's picture instead of Moyer Jr's in the starting lineup.

                          I just wish Dirt Nation would let us hear James Essex instead of their own announcers. They charge top dollar and consumers should expect a top presentation.

                            In my opinion they charge to much. I will stick with Lucas oil TV and dirt on dirt replays.

                              I was actually kind of disappointed with the way Essex sounded on the Lucas PPV. It wasn't anything wrong with James, it was just like his voiced sound totally different than his signature sound...like it was over produced or something. It just seemed to lose that exciting quality he usually has.

                              Sounds like a solid decision. I want to support anyone that is trying to bring more coverage to the sport, but those prices were just nuts. I'll pay more for DoD's PPV and not complain because I want to see those guys succeed and their broadcast bring a lot to the table.
