FanVision (Kangaroo TV) not available at the Lemans 24 Hour race this year
Regretfully, due to unforeseen circumstances, FanVision (formerly known as Kangaroo TV) will not be attending the 24 Heures du Mans in 2011. We wish to apologise to all of our customers who may be inconvenienced. We look forward to introducing our newest product in future years and we will continue to operate in Formula 1 and NASCAR uninterrupted. We thank you for your loyal support.

That's a huge disappointment. I will miss the camera feed in my hands the most. So what does everyone reckon to be the best way of getting live timing at the track?

There you go then.....
A shame. The note that the company will 'continue to operate in F1 and NASCAR' gives me little optimism that we'll see them back at Le Mans any time soon..... |

Disappointing, especially because the product isn't needed as much in NASCAR anyways, the ovals allow the fans to follow the race with their own eyes and most tracks have large screens anyways.
The product is much more suited to endurance racing which is hard to follow just by radio... shame it isn't happening. |

It is a shame, we can only hope that a son-of-kangaroo comes along in the form of a smartphone app that has similar functionality.

Do we need to debate this much more now - I can't see much point in giving space for something that's not going to happen. I think we've said all that needs to be said here - yes?
