The internet has changed the way people consume motorsports, but some competitions
do not have a major presence on the web. The GEICO AMA
EnduroCross recently announced it would be making a major step
forward technologically by offering live timing and scoring online
for all of its races.
The live timing and scoring will debut this Friday with the GEICO
AMA EnduroCross in Las Vegas. For the first time ever, fans will be
able to follow the on-track action live through their computer,
getting constant updates on track position and overall lap times.
Not only will the main event be covered, but all of the pre-race
heats, qualifiers and various side competitions will be
included.
EnduroCross officials hope the free service will allow more fans to
follow the sport, even if they can't catch the race on
television.
"We have EnduroCross fans from around the world that want to know
what is happening in real time so we are happy about getting this
live feed up and running" said Mike Karsting, VP of events at
Source Interlink, which owns and maintains the official EnduroCross
website. "The results feed won't catch the real action of
EnduroCross but at least race fans will be able to follow their
favorite riders results live."
