Grand Prix Masters: On US TV ?
That's the winter series with all the "older" GP winners, Mansell, PRost, de Cesaris etc.... Driving a spec car no less... Anybody knows if this will be transmitted in the US anywhere ? Starts in 2 weeks !!!

There is no reason (other than ratings) why this shouldn't been on SpeedTV (soon to be NASCAR TV)

In general (there are always exceptions) Americans and what they like about cars whether it be their passenger cars or their race cars, sucks!
Thank goodness there are a few of us weirdo's that have taste. ![]()

PS I guess I'll have to download it from the internet. I've been downloading Top Gear and Fifth Gear for a while now, but earlier today I discovered that there are several gigs of various years of F1 online for the downloading. Most of it is >1990, but there are some spread anywhere from 1955 and up. Now I just need a bigger harddrive or a dual layer DVD burner.

Fox owns SpeedTV. Fox will rebrand it NASCARTV soon. Give it a year. But this is a good thing. Sportscar, F1, Rally will find a new home that doesn't broadcast the only replay of their races at 3am.
