Now here's the way to do it...



I just noticed the new site "Racing News Online" on the My.Userland
new feeds page (http://my.userland.com/newChannels). I noticed that
the RSS URL was parameterized, and figured that the site could 
probably cough up some other interesting things.

So I headed over to www.racingnewsonline.com, and found a very cool
"Feed Services" link directly off of the home page. The site can
supply the following feeds:

* RSS
* XML
* HTML, headlines only
* HTML, headline and summary

The XML looks to be a format of their own, with interesting
<category>, <source>, and <timestamp> values. Their <story>
tags even have unique Ids. 

The URL includes a count parameter, so you can ask for as many
or as few stories as you want.

Morbus, this should satisfy those demands you are getting for
Nascar racing feeds.

I've already sent the site's owner a thank-you for all of this
coolness.
