Actually, there was another petition prior to the changeover. I think it had 60,000 or 70,000 signatures. It meant nothing. This is all about FOX's multi-million dollar 5-year fee paid to NASCAR for the right to air NASCAR races. They are using Speed Channel as a means of getting more viewers for the FOX broadcasts of the races so they can sell more commercial time. It's really that simple. I'd do the same if I were Rupert Murdoch.
Well, actually, if I were Rupert Murdoch I'd retire and buy a 73 RSR 2.8 and a Winnebago. I'd just drive around the country all day, every day with my wife following behind in the motorhome
