Actually Speed TV only shows that nascar shit 24/7. So yeah it has been sucking ass sicne like maybe a few years ago. I hate it now just hate it I dont even bother to watch it even if there is Le Mans or any F1 races on I try and looking on the internet for downloads and race results. It sucks so badly becuase of nascar that it is not even funny. Seriously it sucks balls! So :fist: 0X @ SpeedTV no one here.

They need a nascar only chanel so I don't have to be punished while trying to see real racing. One for nascar red necks and one for FIA events
NASCAR :fist: :x

SpeedTV is junk...I don't even watch except for the F1 races, it just pisses me off that they devote so much of their time to god damn NASCAR. I mean, I don't care if they carry a few important races, but it seems like 90% of their time is NASCAR...leaving almost no time for all the other motorsports out there...that is insulting. Screw Fox! :x

SpeedTV is just following the money and at the moment the money is in NASCAR. But, they still have some awesome programming on scattered in between the crap and stuffed into the lineup in the wee hours of the night.

they have some cool shows like behind the headlights and other stuff like that but most of it is junk, I would love to watch that MC12 race FIA. Damn American values.

my favourite and only interesting about speed tv is the fricking barrett-jackson auction. but even that gets boring after a while. I would love to punch out Brock Yates and Alan De Cadenet.

and the test drives...
As if watching montecarlos and dodge somethings go around an oval track wasn't bad enough, the new car test drives suck. They never say anything bad about a car, they just say it's interesting and will have to wait to see how it goes. They are endorsement whorrs, they take the money and make a show for the sponsors.
I'm lucky though because I get mexican programming and watch the F1 races at night and don't have to deal with redneck nascar crap. Besides, who gives a damn about restrictor plate tracks?
