    Now that Nextel is sponsoring NASCAR how important will it be to keep
    capacity at them races they have? Looking at the Daytona 500, the first race
    of the year, how can Nextel have the temporary but reliable capacity to
    handle the 200,000 folks that will show up at the races? I know for the few
    races I've been to that Sprint had problems ---- even at the track in KC.
    They'd have plenty of signal, but no available lines to dial out on. I'm
    talking for hours and hours.

    I'd think about getting a Nextel phone, but the overall coverage and event
    coverage concern me.

    Nextel is supposed to be upgrading their networks to provide extra
    capacity at the tracks.

    In addition, they have some mobile towers that will probably roll in for the
    big races.

    They have built a MONSTER cow. It is a full sized 18 wheeler.

    Really? I haven't had the chance to see one yet. I can imagine that it is
    quite the sight.
