In The Driver's Seat

NASCAR fans who made it to the track this year got to kick the action up a notch with a new gadget that shows even more live, in-car video than the couch potatoes get back home on TV. Dedicated racegoers have long used handheld scanners to listen in on conversations between drivers and their pit crews, but FanView adds audio and video to the mix, using feeds from seven different cameras and microphones inside selected cars.
