Email Jetwerx and let them know. Yesterday FSR was airing Kicker Arenacross, but partway though the 2nd 250 moto Gopher Dunes kicked in.

I'm with Bell. Today Gopher Dunes aired on FSR at 1pm like it was scheduled for.

No Fox Sports Racing here with Cogeco was all messed up. Taped 4 hours of expected racing and it was nothing but ARCA and Nascar filler stuff all weekend.

Total joke, im tired of them over-promising and under-delivering. Like i said earlier in the thread, just show it on YouTube or something instead. Nobody is going to pay for an app which has bad quality, that isnt widely used.

Between that and the AX Series being a mess and the Supercross series being just a US Arenacross i feel like this new JetWerx thing has become worse by the year.

Man I was a little bummed. Had a few friends over, some regular moto guys and some people who know nothing about the sport. The quality of video was so poor in most camera angles it honestly made the whole thing look like a joke. especially to my few friends who are super into the stick and ball sports. We were changing channels just to see if we had a dodgy connection but nope everything else worked fine it was just the worst technical difficulties ive seen on live TV in a while.

Also the whole schedule being messed up and airing nascar or wtvr those oval racing series are was messed up lol i bailed on plans Saturday because i saw on TV there was maybe the 1st motos airing. I dont know was just a shit show on my end haha

It all comes down to budget.. The guys running the series have made leaps and bounds from where it used to be.

Full TV crews, and proper infrastructure is not in the budget yet.. give them time and they will build it

The set up looked like it was relying on one small uplink satellite rather than the massive trucks traditionally used.

They won't ever get the budget from sponsors if everything they come up with is a joke.... They've been doing it for for 3-4 years now. They should know how to make it work by now... If live doesn't work maybe they should have someone edit the races professionally like before and upload the video within 12 hours of the event's end.

The lack of professionalism is the reason that there is no budget, they are so fixed on a "Triple Crown" series that theyre diluting the product. Run 10-12 MX round and then have 3-4 SX Rounds in the fall in Ontario & Quebec. The best race that they have held so far was at the NASCAR oval track under the lights in year 1 just outside of London.

I hope they figure it out. It’s been a pretty poor product put out since Jetwerx has taken over. Not like the old series was perfect by any means and it really seems like the Jetwerx guys have tried. So far it isn’t great though.

I casually know some of the team guys just from being around the local tracks and the normal hey how’s it going kind of thing. Everyone I’ve met seems to be good hard working people. I feel bad for the teams. Again I hope Jetwerx can figure it out at some point and keep a good healthy series going.

Scrap the indoor series. Run a longer mx series, archive them on YouTube like someone mentioned and grow from there. I feel like they’ve tried to do too much and haven’t perfected anything. Time to go back dial in the basics.

There was a recent podcast where gualdy dropped some plans... SX style track will be constructed on the gopher dunes property with soil trucked in... I do agree that having AX and SX essentially both arena cross races is not ideal.. Make a real SX track, even if it has to be outdoors due to the costs of renting a large venue like the rogers center.

That plan for an under the lights SX race actually makes sense since that Vision Built company has been building SX tracks that are pretty sweet (For CDN Standards) and Gopher had the arenacross track already, they could extend it or put it in the parking lot just north of it.

I may actually just drive up to watch that race if its a nice night.
