Online or on NBC?

online, of course

Who knows when it's going to air on NBC tonight?

And by the time it airs, every other media outlet will have spoiled the result anyway.

Yo, what is with this race, I don't think I've ever seen anyone in the first lane of these 400s do good

The best lanes to have if they use lane 1 is 3,4,5 & 6.

But for the last couple of championships that ive seen that have a 9 lane thrack they dont use lane 1 as it is too tight.

I see the lane 9, but even those running out of lane 2 don't seem to do too well either.

The outside lanes are deemed to be the hardest as you have longer on the bends to run
