I tune out when they are playing those nascar shows. I like watching nascar races but dont like the shows. Not everyone that watches Speed Channel has a mullet and drives a pickup truck.

For real, I appreciate nascar and its drivers skill, but I dont want to see 18 talk shows about the seasons new rules and such. Also, PINKS? Just get back to nothing but racing.

I think the thing you guys fail to realize speed is no different than any other business, they go to where the $$ is.

In the US there are probably 4 times as many NASCAR fans than any other racing series here combined. Its just about shear numbers. I cant stand watching those dumb NASCAR shows but Rally Racing is also boring to watch.

I want to make a petition to show muscle car shows and barrett jackson auctions all day.

I agree, it's all about the Benjamins but F1, you gotta' be kidding :yawn: that series is so outta' wack because of that idiot Bernie Ecclestone :censored: I would rather watch a "soap-box derby" race than F1 ever again. now I would like to see more off-road racing like Baja and Dakar + more off-shore power boats :banana: and of course more Aussie Touring Cars from the land "down-unda" mate

Yeah, but F1 is alot more interesting to watch then Nascar, and my point in the petition was that i'm sure altoa the nascar fans would see that connection and be entertained as well.

I'm a huge NASCAR fan, and I agree they have too many BS programs dedicated to it. The only ones I might watch are NASCAR this morning, just to get a hint of how my driver (Jr) is running. But all the other shows throughout the week I could care less about. I agree with 04DArk, more Barrett Jackson!!!!!!
