Discussion Headphones vs. the Grandstand PA: Does the Phone Broadcast Help You Follow the Race?

19 Upvotes

Been doing some Uber shifts lately and listening to a lot of podcasts about focus and staying steady. That got me thinking about bringing my own headphones next time I go to a race. At Barber the PA system always gets drowned out anyway, and half the time I miss what's actually happening on track. Curious if anyone else has tried just tuning into the broadcast on their phone and skipping the big speakers. Battery life worries me a little since some races run long. Wondering how easy it is to keep a signal inside the grandstands too. Seems like it could help block out random crowd noise without missing anything important. Has anyone tried this at Gateway or Nashville and noticed any difference in how they follow the action?

Off Topic Penske Automotive Group being bought out

56 Upvotes

Okay maybe "Bought Out" wasn't the right word. Being taken private more aptly describes it

I don't know if this will have any impact on IndyCar but some interesting non IndyCar related news regarding Roger Penske. Tough to find a source that didn't require a subscription.

He has won road courses in the past however his last few wins had been ovals, there was that mess in st Pete a few years ago but ever since it has only been oval wins for him.
