I just spoke with the newsroom at WFLA Channel 8 and they will be showing some of todays race at 5:29 P.M today on Channel 8. Also spoke with the Fox13 Tampbay which had the Skyfox helicopter shooting footage as well. They could not confirm that the race would be on the 10:00 o'clock news tonight but did ask me for the race website so that they could add information to the footage. A decision would be made later this afternoon as to the race being aired.
