Although I'm very happy to see USAC sprints on TV (living in SE Virginia, I rarely get to see them anyway), I can't stand VS coverage. Other than the in-car shot of the Swindell/Clayton incident, I have no idea what happened.

In-car shots are great from reaplys, but at least show us what happened from outside the car. And don't get me started about their rediculous graphics about transfer positions, especially when it completely covers up the celebration by Keading.

I thought that Versus coverage of the DuQuoin show was very good...

Cool speed shots at the end of the back stretch

If you don't like the sprint car the coverage, turn the channel. I am happy to see sprints on TV anytime, instead of NASCRAP.

I DVR'd it and just watched it, I enjoyed it. Was like a blast from the past listening to Larry Rice.
