I was fortunate enough to be on Don Kay’s Autosportradio.com show. Don Kay is an avid IndyCar fan who has a long history following the Indianapolis 500, IndyCar and the Indy Pro Series. Don is among the few that have a vast knowledge of the IndyCar history.

What is impressive is how quickly Don has adapted to the internet to get his message out. For his live audio show Don uses the Wavestreaming server (wavestreaming.com) with a 24k bitrate. Dial up is used to connect connect to wavestreaming.com.

For video, Don records his digital video camera to record the show. Don understands how important lighting is and has a good portable lighting system in place. After the show, the video is edited and uploaded to his site in wmv format. He understands the need for quick turnaround.

In the future Don plans on doing his show using video live. Because his current setup has been working for on demand video, the transition to live video will only require server connections. Don who knows enough to be dangerous on the internet has done an outstanding job creating a live show on the internet for his fans to enjoy.

Don has a great archive of legendary racers and people who are involved in the industry. This list will only grow due to Don Kay’s enthusiasm for the sport.

Don has been doing some great things for indycar.com which I will cover in depth in a future post.

Thanks for having me on the show!
