I second that! It should be called the "round and round channel" I am sick of that crap!!! I would rather watch loops of unique whips than another Nextel waste of time.

what do you mean by "lately"? I got the channel so I could watch road racing events that no other sports channel shows. If I want nascar I'll watch espn or something. Is it really neccessary to see the Practice rounds for 3hrs?!

I actually like NASCAR. Glad to see the Daytona 500 is coming up real soon. But, truth be told, I've got the hots for Danica Patrick and would like to see more Indy Car racing.

PS It's okay. My wife knows I like Danica. She also knows I wouldn't stand a chance with Danica even if she and I were both available.

Brian, Isn't this like trying to petition a hospital to not cure the sick? Or like trying to petition God to make the sky another color than blue? Or best yet, like petitioning MINIUSA to stop bringing in so many MINIs to the US?

Wow... I signed this at 4000 a couple of weeks ago. Looks like word is getting out. Not that I have any hope of Speed changing from their 24 hours of Nascrap programming.

Yeah, I could live with less NASCAR in my life, I grew up in the shadow of Dover Downs "The Monster Mile." I've always compared NASCAR to watching a dog chasing its tail for 10 hours in the blistering heat. It's entertaining for a little while, but if there are no crashes, it really gets boring. Give me GT racing anyday.

Signed.. not holding my breath that it will make a difference, but just MAYBE someone will catch on..

In their defence, it's not ALL NASCRAP, I did see figure-8 school bus racing the other morning...

Thanks Eric... I gotta point Randy over here too... Yes, I know this wont have any real effect, but I just need to express my frustration.

I love it how the German and British Touring car races come on at 2am... If they would just move 1 or 2 of those races to a time were someone could actually watch them, I would be happy. I am not asking for all road racing all the time, just a balance. You can only handle so much PINKS! for heavens sake.

-Brian
