Speed channel sucks!! Two hours of the Petit LeMans and then for the next five hours it's cars and trucks going in circles. Does anybody remember when it was Speedvision and they showed cool stuff all day everyday? What happened to the World ralley, DTM, Australian V8 touring cars, British touring cars, and nonstop coverage of races such as 12 hours of Sebring, 24 hours of LeMan and of course the Petit LeMan. Sorry for the rant I guess I just needed to vent a little.

Nascar not only knows how to turn left they also road race too bad the road racers can't figure out how to turn left.

What a joke not only do the teams struggle to conform the spec series cars to handle on a road coarse but rather than elevate the skills of the "best racers in the World", to be competitive on those coarses, with a few exceptions the teams resort to using "specialists" (IE Roadrace ringers) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)
