Why isn't CART Live on Speed?!?
Why isn't the Denver race live on speed. I just finished watching the atlantic race and now they've got AMA Superbike racing on. Even though it is being delayed and they're killing time. Surely bike racing isn't more popular or important than CART. I'm stuck in MN on work so no TSN for me.

Can't answer your question, but TSN isn't carrying the SV coverage like they usually do. We're stuck with Hobbs.

That wasn't Hobbs commentating? Who was it? I recognized the voice.

yeah...I'm not a fan of them at all... they go on forever about things I already knew or could care less about - just call the race dammit! I much prefer the Speed crew.

SPEED probably didn't want to go head to head with the NASCAR race. Showing the race at 9pm probably gives them higher viewer numbers.

For some stupid reason TSN blacked out the Speed taped delayed broadcast of the race.

They always do that so you'll be forced to watch TSN and that makes them able to claim higher ratings.
Why couldn't Jeremy Shaw learn who was in the cars? He sounds like Murray! |
