Are most of the racing frequencies repeaters or are they a mix of 
repeaters and simplex? I would also think that drivers would have 
digital channels that would only be used between themselves and 
their pit crews.  Not close enough to a race course to listen.

They're all over the 460's.  IF you google nascar team 
frequencies, you'll
find a listing of them.  It is very interesting, they often are 
good to scan
through though there is no listing, but at local race tracks.  I 
will say
though, not all of what you h ear at the actual tracks is fit for 
mixed
company.  I've been there and done that and you learn new words 
sometimes.  It
is interesting though.

Subject: Ot: Datona 500 frequencies

I listened here in Denver to one of our many sports stations as 
they =
covered the Daytona 500 last weekend.  I heard some of the radio 
=
transmissions between the pits and the drivers and wondered what 
=
frequencies they were using.  I figure it must be VHF, of course, 
but it =
would be fun listening in during an actual race.  I wish Denver 
would =
get into racing and build a big track but when we built the 
latest =
Bronco stadium, I was hoping they would build a retractible dome 
so we =
could host a Super Bowl some day but the mayor, who is now the 
governor, =
literally said on air that he was afraid it might get jammed.  
Liberals! =
Can=E2=80=99t live without them and can=E2=80=99t shoot them, as 
Steven =
Wright said once, haha.
