    That's probably why I dont watch that channel anymore. Everytime I check to see what's on it, a NASCAR race is on. I hate nascar!!!

    Anyway....

    In a great southern drawl!

    "Hey, you got a NASCAR." "Thanks, you got a NAS CAR too!!"

    Had the old lady not bought a flat-screen last year, I'd have thrown the damn TV out completely already! My old set was on its last legs, and I was looking forward to the day it would die and there would be no more TV in my house. But, no. The wife went out and got a nice flat-screen "for my birthday", so we are stuck until this one ****s out.

    Honestly, there are about 24 hours of TV i even care to watch throughout the year! SPEED ****s ***! Dave DeSpain...he ****s these days, too, since he is all about NA$CAR now, and that's about it.

    That dumb*** show that that "pro" r***ler does is BS. I kinda like "Wrecked" and "Jacked", but they do not belong on SPEED. Like SPEED isn't worth a **** anymore, neither is History or any of the other "specialty" channels. It is all garbage for the uneducated anymore.

    Yeah, I miss the 'ol SpeedVision - it was kick ***, you got to see all kinds of REAL racing from all over the world. We Loved it.

    Now SPEED ****s *** - You either get NAS**** or 'reality' shows - like we really needed another channel full of reality tv - Especially 'Wrecked'...what the hell does that have to do with either racing or speed?

    I would love to *****-slap who ever is in charge over there.

    Damn I miss SpeedVision...

    Why watch TV when you can hang out on the HAMB?

    Legends of motorsports was a cool show, I also liked FIA world rally, those guys have some big balls. Good-wood festival of speed was great too. Its really sad the trash that's on there now.

    Last Sat they had a Hot Rod episode on The Black Widow. Kinda cool but I wish they would have went into the build more like they do on Rides.

    Plenty of Grand-Am races, Speed GT/Touring, Moto GP and F1 coverage. Get a friggin' DVR.

    I do wish they had more dirt racing though.

    Yeah years ago I was on 2nd shift and could find somekind of racing on Speedvision when I came home...Loved the diesel trucks racing in Europe at 1 am.

    I had it when I had Dish last year, and thought it had gone down hill then I whiched to cable and it is offered in a higher priced packaged. not worth it, if I remember right when I had it on Dish there was a lot of dirt bike racing on. for pete's sake figgen dirt bikes !!!

    My cable co took speed off my package 4-5 years ago. I called to complain, they said for another 5 bucks a month I could get it back. I told them to cancel everything.

    No TV at all now since then. Glad to hear I'm not missing anything.:D
