Has anyone tried out this MotorTrendOnDemand service linked at the bottom of the Pirelli World Challenge live stream page? I decided to give it a go and signed up for one month, which included a free 2 week trial.

So far it seems pretty legit, it works on both my phone and PS4, although it's a little slow on the PS4. It has a lot of repeats of what is on BurningWhee1s, and I doubt this app can match his speed in terms of how fast he gets events up (he's doing a TON so far this year). That said, it does have a good handful of series that BurningWhee1s does not have....the Irish Real Road Racing Series is worth the price of admission alone in my opinion :lol: Those side cars are insane!

The reason I'm asking if anyone else has tried it though is I'm wondering how long it takes them to upload races after they happen. They have the Bathurst 12 hour, but don't have any of the PWC races yet. Also, I went through some of the archives for last year's PWC, and some of the events seem to be missing.

I'm definitely not going to pay for a long term subscription if they are slow to upload, and don't upload every event of the series.

However, it is the only place on the web I've been able to find full BTCC coverage...ahh I'm torn.


I appreciate any input from anyone who's tried it. I also recommend at least checking out the 2 week free trial, as there seems to be a lot of good footage there.
 
I've been wanting to try the service but their servers seem very unstable. I was actually going to pull the trigger last night but it kept giving me time-out errors and signing me out so I didn't do it.
 
I bit the bullet and bought it for a month, and so far I'm a bit disappointed, the video feed just buffers or skips every 15-20 seconds or so, no matter which video I try. And there are still region restrictions on the motorsports/vault content, which kinda sucks as well.

I've had it time out on me once so far, right when I first signed up, no issues since.

I haven't had any problems with the videos skipping or pausing, sorry to hear that 👎

I live in Canada and haven't found any content that's been region restricted.
