CONTENT REMOVED FOR CREATIVE SWEARING !

If you guys were in charge of programming at Speed, I'd prolly watch a lot more Speed. How 'bout showing SWC in a decent time slot? A decent TV package for Koni Challenge would be nice. Maybe weekly 1/2 hour shows for NASA and SCCA Club racing? FIA GT? LMES? Brazilian stock cars, Aussie V-8s, WTCC? Since we're talking about boat racing, anyone remember the Aussie Jet Sprints? Cool stuff.

And, we've got to recognize that Nascar is still the 800 lb gorilla. So give them an hour a night. No more, no less.

Would love to see the liquid quarter mile drag boatracing more often.

I'd be satisfied if they'd just show the racing 'same day'. On the weekends I don't want to see stuff like "Pinks", "Wrecked", "Superbikes", "NAPCAR Nation", or whatever. Show that drivel during the week. There is more than enough motorsports out there that most weekends could practically be filled with racing and there would be no need to show all the vapid 'lifestyle' shows. As far as racing:

F1: Probably the most watched racing series out there. Though I'm not a major fan.
MotoGP: Why can't they show the Saturday races (Qatr, Assen) on race day?
AMA Superbike: I'm okay if they show the dumbed down "Daytona Stupidbike" at 3 a.m. on Tuesday, but the top tier racing should be shown same day. Not sure it needs to be live since the AMA seems to be addicted to red flags of late.
FIM WSBK: Again, same day coverage would be cool.

I realize the bike racing isn't as popular as the NAPCAR roundy-round stuff, but if Speed promoted it 1/10th as much as they do their insipid 'reality' shows it could gain a following.

First get rid of all the cheapo reality crap now!!! Then cover more racing(not SCRAPCAR)tape delay during the week,l all racing on weekends. Bring back "VIctory by Design" "American Muscle Car" , and shows like that. Cover the Isle of Mann, it's only the oldest motorcycle race there is. Cover Goodwood and do decent coverage on the Monterey Historics, in fact cover vintage racing in depth its really great to see vintage cars run in anger again. For everybody else cover boats, motor cycles, and A-1 GP. I guarrantee I'll watch alot more and so will others

I need to see Drag Boat Racing. During July, the big 2 of the big 3 sports aren't even playing and baseball is in the middle of a very, very long season. Boat racing would be HUGE for me and give other people who don't even know much about it something to watch instead people talking about stuff like Brett Favre and his retirement issues etc, etc... Please lets see some fast action on the water. I can hear the roar of the boats in the surround-sound now. The time has come!

I would love to see expanded coverage of the Bathurst Australian V8 Supercars race at Mt. Panorama. Cool cars. Incredibly unique race track.

If that includes the 24 hour Australian race then.....YES!........what he said!

Belleville Nationals. Copper Classic.

Drag boats, Unlimited hydros.

LeMans 24, with nighttime looks at what's happening off the track too.......and replay that sub 3 minute Audi rearend resection every once in a while.

F1 Snowmobiles.

Old ABC archived races from the 60's and 70's......all the venues all the disciplines.

BTC within a week of the race.



It simply amazes me that there is no money to pick up some great stuff but plenty of cash to see school buses chained together. Listen! I'm shaking my head.

Dopey

1. Motogp qualifying practice
2. WSBK superpole
3. Quad racing
4. MUCH LESS muscle car 'how to', NASCAR rehash and squid biker fodder - more F1, sports car and two wheel racing oriented shows
5. Show the races on the weekend - show the filler carp during the week

Drag Boat racing needs more coverage on television. Isn't that what SpeedTv is? A need for speed? If you have never been to a drag boat racing I suggest you go. You can stand on the river bank and hear the thunder of the boats going past and it is exciting. Please put more on for us to watch.
