Using our game to cater to the audience this, apparently, wants to capture, eludes me as a good idea for racing. There is a lot of great stuff in the game, a lot of great human interest stories as well, but breakdowns isn't one of them ( at least to me ).

I would rather be ignored than used in that manner.
Back to the 30 sec promo/tease which had 3 horses going down...I think people are more accepting of humans cartwheeling down some sh.it hole NASCAR track in Padooka than watching a horse go down. I really think Animal Planet needs to look in the mirror
