AusV8 TV coverage in NZ [formerly TV3 - Another raw deal on coverage] - Page 2

smokin'joe · 20 May 2012, 10:18 (Ref:3076756)

i see tv3 are still exceling themselves at giving motorsport fans a raw deal on V8SC coverage. race start at 12.10am, after an hour of repeats.

if they spent less time w%$%^ing on about NZST, we might get to watch it on the same day as the race??

Stop *****ing and just watch it live on the big web like most do. St pay for everything they do....... Don't like it tell supercars to pay to broadcast.

Wow, your posts have gotten worse and worse by the day haven't they? Time differences, google it

3 minutes spent talking about ST's wouldnt have made a difference

look like that is the only option. don't see why a free to air broadcaster prides itself for having the coverage, then lets us down with schedule.

have used similar means for watching NZ superstocks, so i guess will have to do the same for mainstream motorsport

i take it you're not a big fan of the Almighty Johnsons? the midnight start for the 2nd race was rather poor. then again.. it's not a first for the home of motorsport.

actually quite enjoy the Almighty Johnsons, but why does it need to be repeated on a Sunday night, if at all ??

who knows *shrugs*

flyingduck · 21 May 2012, 01:18 (Ref:3077066)

It's a shame that it's so late, I try to go the day with our hearing the result but again that has failed so tonight I will watch knowing the top 3 results but I want better than that.

Even if they could put it on a freeview channel I would be happy the TV3 + 1 hour delay channel would be perfect place for it then it won't be any problems re ratings

promax · 21 May 2012, 06:11 (Ref:3077095)

i made it through the day without hearing the results of the midnight race

no doubt i'll now find out that i recorded the wrong channel

Gidya Steve Richards, glad to see you are well and having a say. How is the new NZV8 coming along. Are you planning to run the new engine/gearbox combo or just using the old stuff until all of the creases have been ironed out.
Also Southernman aka Inky Tullock, has the new Commodore been delivered.

promax · 21 May 2012, 20:18 (Ref:3077450)

i own a new gen NZV8? kewl!!! have you any idea where i parked? just checked the garage and i don't see one?

Southern Man · 21 May 2012, 20:47 (Ref:3077459)

Hey Promax, its no problem, just as soon as I get my hands on Tulloch's cheque book I will buy you one

Steve, what are your thoughts on how the NZV8s will shape up this year. Still no confirmation on what yours and Simon's plans are for this year?

promax · 22 May 2012, 01:13 (Ref:3077575)

Can remember Inky feeding Simon into the wall at Timaru. You may find it hard remembering that one. There were so many crashes Inky had that year and the year before that. Maybe they can get Inky back, he makes great TV. They could run a greatest hits montage in the ad brake

Good on ya harcey, why bother even posting that?? I love it how you picked out my post which was simply responding to other posts on here, which i thought was quite rough as peoples names, identities etc have been stated on here....which isn't really what a forum is all about.

Happy with that harcey?
