High Def and IndyCar Series

From Steve Ballard on blogs.indystar.com/nascarinsider “The new-look IndyCar Series, with 26 cars in a unified field for Saturday night’s season opener at Homestead-Miami Speedway, also will have a new look for fans watching the race from home.” He is talking about HD. Now if you are a fast car fan, this is a triumph!

From Wikipedia, “Superficially, IRL cars closely resemble those of other open-wheeled formula racing cars, with front and rear wings and prominent airboxes.”

From autospectator.com, “The 2007 Indianapolis 500 on ESPN on ABC was the first IndyCar Series event to be televised in HD, and all cameras used in ESPN’s IndyCar Series coverage in 2008 will be HD, including in-car cameras and those used in the pits and for other points of view. Included will be a new, high-tech HD onboard camera that can provide a rotating 360-degree view.”
