“We have been watching WSL and King of the Hammers have success with live streaming and have just been waiting for the opportunity and budget to livestream The Mint 400 at a level that we felt was worth of such an iconic race. In particular, King of the Hammers inspired us when they hit a milestone of 1 million unique viewers this year. We have taken note and pulled out all the stops including seven ground cameras, drone cameras, and live feeds from the helicopter.
