"EVERY WHICH WAY BUT LOOSE"... on a Friday night no less... and they re-ran it a couple of times

Could someone post speed TV's email address please?

I also miss WRC... DVR is the only thing that makes speed tv bearable, they do slip in a little real racing between the infotainment.

I even tried to catch the solstice test drive last night but it was a load of BS. They talked about the car for about five minutes and the rest was fluff... I ended up watching... okay I had a half a bottle of wine in me... Hogan knows best... there I said it.

Speed DOES suck. And they're cluelss. They've got a wealth of almost free programming in things like car swap meets, assorted runs, DE events, Autocrosses and club meets. They could program a weekly, Chevy Show, Porsche Show, BMW Show, etc. They could program a show for vintage - Chevy, Porsche, BMW, etc. And they miss it ALL!

In my opinion they don't know their potential audience. They seem to pander to the ricers boys and the 'necks only. At least that's my opinon.

I would LOVE to have a weekly vintage Porsche hour to look forward to that covered feature cars (many of them would be sourced from here on Pelican), on their build up and restoration. They could follow one (or a Chevy or an MB, or a BMW) from rusty can to final product.

Hell, DarlyD's 912 in process on a DIY basis is a reality series in itself. Clueless MoFo's.

Agreed there. I'd love to have a weekly vintage Porsche hour too. Speaking of which, they're showing highlights from Rounds 1-4 of the Porsche Super Cup on Sunday (tomorrow) from 4-5pm.

My cable is covered through my condo right now, and with my work schedule the numbers just don't work to cough up the extra dough. I'm out of the canoe club in about 8 months, and the wife and I are moving back to the Seattle side. I plan on going for all the good stuff then.
