Speed TV sucks- any internet solutions?

In the past during the off season of racing Speed TV would show German touring car,Australian touring cars,World rally etc. but now all we get is either Pinks or some other crap ! I don't believe there are any TV alternatives out there but are there internet sites that you can watch this racing ? I tried to watch Pinks last night and I can't drink enough beer to make that show watchable It's just not my thing. Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

You Tube will keep you occupied for hours.

Just type in "Porsche" in the search function



I have found some really cool videos this way.


I like drag racing as well as the next guy but that show "Pinks" has run it's course, IMO.

I think new shows start around the first of the year for Dream Car Garage and some of the others.

Low Rider, is that the one where you look at Vida Guerra's ass in hiphugger shorts?

Seems like the individual racing leagues would haved their own websites, saw some video links here

I think that's the one, didn't stay on long enough to get her name though.

What's that funky show where the two 'wrenches' do mods on trucks? AWFUL

They should re-broadcast ALMS races.

Yeah, I have to be pretty bored to watch Pinks, but I really enjoy Pinks All Out. There is none of the fake drama and it is nice seeing real people (the little guy) doing what they love and getting some attention for it.

I watched the Norwalk OH episode this week. The grandstands were filled as much or more than a full blown NHRA event to watch a 60-something guy win $10-grand with his 68 Charger. Its a very creative business model as well.

Aside from that, I spend a lot of time on Youtube. Try searching under Targa Florio and Nurburgring

Some of my favorites:








Just look up any racing keyword in Youtube, you'll find plenty to watch. Also, download Top Gear torrents from finalgear.com. That could keep you busy for months.
