Default HD

Finally went HD and wonder what races, if any, are actually aired in HD. I figure the Derby is, but are there any more?

I don't have HD but hang out with someone who does, and watch races there a lot. I don't think I have seen anything in HD....we thought the BC might be this past fall but it wasn't. Maybe this year?

Having HD races would spur interest in the game and that is obviously not what the powers that be want.

I find it hard to believe the BC wasn't in HD.

The TC races are.....how could the BC not be?

if it was we didn't get it....though in the past few months the number of HD channels has nearly doubled.

please don't doubt me on this, I am an expert and my opinion will just go over your head.

I will assume that he has the correct cable hookup for HD.....but I'm surprised to hear this. Pretty much every sporting event ESPN does is in HD.

he does....you've seen that monstrosity.

thinking back it might have just been the friday races that weren't in HD....because they were on ESPN2 rather than the regular ESPN. But I feel like none of them were.....
