What most people don't understand is that this segment will be aired to a "different" crowd, not a crowd of automotive enthusiasts. In television, a show must focus to the "Least common denominator". In the case of an automotive type show, you can use "technical" jargon. In a "variety" show like this, you can not.
Please keep in mind that this is a critical step for those of us trying to film these events. The outcome of this will determine the direction we take in covering these events. If the outcome is good, we may look into more "expansive" types of coverages, and maybe better equipment. The goal of this is to also help attract sponsors, not just for drivers, but maybe for locations.
There is alot of good that can come out of this. While hardcore enthusiasts may not agree with the show in it's entirety, they must understand that it is the next step, and we take what we can get.
