It's working too well and lasting too long. That won't create the "Game 7 Moments" that BZF craves.The Man Mannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-58679471507146981802010-12-15T18:13:26.508-05:002010-12-15T18:13:26.508-05:00I know that I am just repeating myself, but I woul...I know that I am just repeating myself, but I would like to see Speed Report go on during the off-season; maybe just a half hour, & include many types of motors sports. Other series world-wide are doing winter testing also.

I can't believe that the networks that broadcast the races don't keep some sort of presence for fans. A weekly show covering all sorts of racing shouldn't be that difficult to put on air once a week.Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03233133246348697023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-29244159912906355972010-12-15T17:20:49.816-05:002010-12-15T17:20:49.816-05:00JD, everyone, Nascar appear to have signed a deal ...JD, everyone, Nascar appear to have signed a deal for the UK for Nascar rights to Premier Sports - a channel with virtually no subscribers. No "casual viewers" dropping by. No audience growth.<br />No HD - picture little better than the free-to-air SD efforts of Open Access in 2010.<br /><br />Nascar have signed with a start-up network with reportedly poor customer services, that it appears to be almost impossible to unsubscribe from. This network is run by the same people who were involved with Setanta, whom many fans got financially burned by with up-front subscription that disappeared when Setanta went bust. Many UK fans (mostly football) vowed never to have anything to do with them again.<br /><br />In addition, it appears they have only signed Cup rights, no Trucks or Nationwide, making it even less value for money for the subscriber.<br /><br />We know Nascar Corporate Office were reading forums where they were begged not to sign with Premier (because they posted onto the forum), but they did anyway.<br /><br />Unbelievable day for UK Nascar fans, and not in a good way. Keep up the pressure on the web stream JD, we might need it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-62075231117332314212010-12-15T16:25:47.303-05:002010-12-15T16:25:47.303-05:002011 Resolution - record ARCA, USAR, UARA, K&N...2011 Resolution - record ARCA, USAR, UARA, K&N, and every other 'AA league' series that Speed carries so I've got something to watch this time next year.

The only thing I remember is just a flat statement there would not be any. It would seem to me there would be a large audience and plenty of willing advertisers, so it would definitely make money. For me, it just does not make sense.
