    Angry Save our SPEED

    Why the F is there a show on SPEEDTV like america got talent "fast lane to fame". Once again they manage to screw up their programming with yet another show that has absolutely NOTHING to do with speed or motorsports for that matter. They continue to throw the name NASCAR on it and shove it down the audiences throat. Man, I am sick of NASCAR this and NASCAR that on that network. CREATE ANOTHER NETWORK IF YALL LOVE IT SO MUCH, AND GIVE OURS BACK!!!

    1o years ago Speedvision was great. It has all sorts of motor racing EXCEPT nascar. There are plenty of places to view nascar but nowhere to view German touring cars anymore. I stopped watching except for F1, might stop watching that soon as they are making the rules too nascar.

    Wish they showed more boat racing, like they use too. I loved watching those boats runs those thght courses! I'm suprised that has never took off here in the US, especally in the south.

    My thoughts exactly. Look at their program guide, 80% is NASCAR or related somehow to it. Instead of all the BS shows that they throw at us, just give me grass roots racing at a local track (drag, circle, boats, pulling) I dont care, BUT MAKE IT ABOUT SPEED or HP or at least something relative!!!

    Can those shows about low riders that go slow and look like chit
    Can those shows about some stupid soap opera wrecker service
    Can those shows about dangerous drives... if you want a dangerous drive, how bout some in boat footage at a OBDA event!!!

    You right and so is every one hear!! We should all email them and tell them how lame the programs are and need to get some real programs we all like to watch before they go broke!! Its the same old thing these days its all about the sponsorship! JetSprint has Ma and Pa operations sponsoring them that realy only put there name on the sides of the boats. They dont realy get anymoney! There on there own. Need the likes of Monster COKE,WINSTON,HOOTERS ect on the boats and then you might see it on TV more often. Maybe we should right them and tell them what we accually want to see there logo on also.

    Yep, like Nascar Vision.. is worth watching, for hours, riding around in circles for 500 miles, looking for the finish line is worth it?. Boring, until someones crashes.

    This last Daytona, had more yellow/red light parked time, than the damn race!

    On the ESPN Poker?..WTF is that? Lots of skill involved, right? And ya SEE the cards dealt?
    BORING!..
    Show me RACING, or at least girls in bikinis, shooting POOL!
