At least the big-wigs at Speed have a little bit of sense left.

I hope this is a sign of things to come at speed, I find amazing what has hapeng on that chanel, sometimes there are races going on an you turn to speed and theres a re-run of a very old show like unique whips or something or a movie fron the 70's.

New episodes of Unique Whips, Pinks, and some show called Redline started airing 2 weeks ago on Wedensday Nights.

New episodes of Dream Car Garage and Sports Car Reveolution started airing around the same time (if you can stand the hosts).

Grand-Am cup series is on-going with 2 hour coverage last Saturday that showed several RX-8 entrants (including one that was on fire).

Star Mazda Series, a few other things, then the rest is Nascar or Nascar related.

i like the channel and think its on the upswing- every once in a while you do get an older thing though so its kind of funny- but as is most cable networks since they all re air stuff....

they air motorweek on saturday mornings which is a cool show

What's with the states and their NASCAR???? It boggles my mind to think that people can stare at a whole nascar race.....I can only stand to watch the last 5 laps.

I dunno. Doesn't look like their NASCAR programming will be rolled back anytime soon. Every time I check SPEED's programming schedule it seems to be increasingly peppered with NASCAR related crap.

Same thing happened last year. We missed the first couple of events while they were negociating a contract.
