I actually thought the faster LAC track layout was a lot more fun to watch on TV. I thought the Phoenix tracked looked too slow on TV.

Finally got to watch round 3. Definitely looked much better than round 1. Not sure if it was because TV production was better or the track layout was more exciting but it was definitely an improvement. Did they ever end up showing Long Beach on TV? The video from that looked even more exciting than LA.

Major fail on the LA broadcast by not using the speed logo on the crossover ramp. When I sat down in my seet that was one of the first things I noticed. I thought that's going to look great on tv. They never really used it. Gotta take care of the sponsors.
