Has anyone done that with GCN yet? Looking to confirm that the IP change alone is enough, and they haven't branded me a US account for those restrictions independent of the IP.

Another confirmation here that you can use a VPN with GCN racing. I use Express VPN and just choose London. Don't have any lag issues with my very pedestrian broadband.

Infact you can enable the VPN and not have to restart the app, just back out of the race info page then go back in.

I also have NBC gold because it's like $20 now and I like Anthony McCrossan who does all of nbc's add free coverage.
