I wish VL would be shown live after all races when possible and then shown before Wind TUnnel.<BR/><BR/>Also, the Ken and Barbie SPEED REPORT should REALLY be shown LATER AT NIGHT imo so they don't spoil so many races for people who TIVO stuff. Like show VL, then WT then SPEED REPORT. I wish they could repeat all those shows instead of the PUTRID "primetime" T&A shows but I digress.<BR/><BR/>I DO enjoy the SPEED report for the racing world stuff I personally may not watch but like to keep enlightened about.<BR/><BR/>SPEED REPORT would be a better late night show IMO. VL should be the high energy, fresh news racing show.<BR/><BR/>Now I see interviews on SR I NEVER see on VL or on INC clips...just too many irons in the fire for SPEED?<BR/><BR/>Just my two cents.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and they REALLY need to make a good MONDAY NIGHT BLOCK of NASCAR before or after or around INC. That would be good for INC and for folks who may miss VL on Sunday nights while watching Football.<BR/><BR/>This may have been suggested already so sorry if I am repeating a good idea.Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07789033556426951026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-77457132689475953312007-10-14T17:13:00.000-04:002007-10-14T17:13:00.000-04:00Count me as another person who likes Riki Ratchman...Count me as another person who likes Riki Ratchman.<BR/>Kevin in SoCalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-19788247775795189792007-10-14T14:30:00.000-04:002007-10-14T14:30:00.000-04:00John - Point of clarification ...

I don't care for Spencer or Kenny. You can tell Wendy grew up at the track with her Dad racing. She already knows everybody and interacts well with all the drivers and crews. <BR/><BR/>I think Jimmy has multiple rugs. And he's dyed his 'burns so the gray doesn't show.<BR/><BR/>And don't get me started on Riki, what a creep! He brings nothing to the show.<BR/><BR/>Well, over to ABC/ESPN to watch the race.

She really is UNFLAPPABLE and likeable.<BR/><BR/>I have seen her ask questions that seemed to annoy the interviewee and she just moved on without missing a beat.<BR/><BR/>I have seen some other tv women cringe and or drool over drivers when things did not go smoothly or you could see a crush factor going on.<BR/><BR/>It's nice to see a young but mature woman who knows how to enjoy the men she is surrounded by without making it a big deal she happens to be a woman.<BR/><BR/>And I hope that sounded better than it reads. I mean that as a HIGH COMPLIMENT coming from a middle aged dame, old enough to be Wendy's mom.<BR/><BR/>In other words, NEVER do I feel Wendy is there strictly to diversify things or to be 'strict' eye candy like one "Barbie" in particular.<BR/><BR/>Notice, no names. ANd there could be one. One even reversed her hair color recently.Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07789033556426951026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-77675494959400665662007-10-13T18:57:00.000-04:002007-10-13T18:57:00.000-04:00This is the strength of Wendy Venturini.
