Science Abuse Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 again Fox has decided that Speed TV should not cover the Paris-Dakar Rallye. OLN has picked it up again this year, I'm not sure who gets that channel, but I sure as hell dont. How can you claim to run a Motorsport network and NOT cover the Dakar? p.s. If you have OLN I'll give you $25 plus the cost of tapes to record all this years stages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallard Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Sweet, I didn't know OLN had it. I've been checking the web for daily updates. I get OLN but that's because I'm so far north I can see Canada from my hotel room, so I can't tape if for ya. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bgbdbn Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 Didnt you know SpeedTV is an acronym for NASCAR TV. I thought everyone knew that. They are just waiting for the NASCRAP season to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeye1647545503 Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 Speed is a waste of a channel, Spike has better auto programs(power block) and Danica as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Pat Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 car and driver tv = homosexual but the rest of the powerblock shows are good Speed Channel is only good for the WRC anymore, they were better back when they were not owned by Fox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coty061885 Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 Speed channel is only good on the weekends. They play less Nascar programming then, and that's when the good road races are on. They at least have F1 and WRC, along with ALMS, Rolex, Champ Car, etc. I've never been able to get into the Paris Dakar thing. It's cool, but the coverage is kinda boring.

Unfortunately I've been too busy to catch any of it this year, the Ausie V8 series is a blast to watch too. You should check that out. They were still a much better channel before Fox bought them.

Orion Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 dakar is great television. i would love to see, just once, a wrc race get the same treatment as say, a college bowlgame. <cue highlight reel, keith jackson voice overlap> "mitsubishi has been unstoppable. storming through their season, decimating all who have stood in their way. they return to the sands, looking to repeat as the champions of the desert. but first, they must go through the blue lions of subaru, who have no intention of letting the diamonds take the cup without a fight. its a desert showdowm, two teams on a collision course in the dunes of dakar, and its here on speed, next." <cue nfl films music> dude, that gets me pumped up. and then we get to hear keith go "whoa, nelly!" every time somebody ramped a dune. awesome.

The DTM races are on Wednesday afternoons so I catch those usually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
