Any plans to pick up racing, especially NASCAR? Are there docs for using data in languages you don't support? Personally thinking of Elixir. It would be nice to see docs and code examples before signing up for a plan, and if you do already make it easier to find.

Thank you for your inquiries! We're excited to share that within the next 2 months, we are planning to introduce a new racing sport endpoint to enhance our offerings.

Regarding language support, our API is designed to be versatile and can be utilized with any programming language that supports HTTP requests with a Bearer token. Specifically for Elixir, you can seamlessly integrate our service using HTTPoison for making requests.

To make your exploration easier, we understand the importance of comprehensive documentation and code examples. We are actively working on improving our documentation to provide clear insights and code snippets for all supported languages, including Elixir. Feel free to check back for updates, and in the meantime, if you have any specific questions or need assistance, our support team is always here to help. We appreciate your interest and look forward to serving your needs!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Looks good, but I can't find any information about your data source(s)?

We are collecting data from multiple sources, such as reports, databases, the web, and many more.

Can you list the sources. The Yahoo api is pretty quick for some sports but I want to know where they get their data from as well.
