You can tape the race and watch it later. I assume your Betamax is still working?
I remember the first one I bought
$1200.00
Finally threw it out 2 years ago and bought a VHS model for $59. Maybe within a few decades I'll get a DVD player.
Its 74°F and sunny ... only going to 80°F this afternoon. My kind of weather.
