Heh, well I'd be the first to say that there's too much NASCAR on Speed. But, I can sympathize; they've gotta pay the bills somehow. You know some of the great programming they offer (Moto GP, WRC, Speed Challenge series, etc.) don't get the best ratings and they have a great opportunity with NASCAR to make some advertising money. That being said, they do take it to the extreme. I would venture to guess that it is close to 50% of their programming which is astounding. Anyways, welcome to the forums.

There is a lot of NASCAR on Speed and I would agree 50% seems about right

I think we may see less NASCAR since NASCAR is jumping tv stations, next season.

I wouldn't count on it, if anything I would guess there may be more coverage because each station will have their own features on NASCAR. Oh well, they pay for the shows we watch so I can't complain too much.

Speed Channel should just change their name to NASCAR TV. Although I do like the F1 Decade show. Seeing Rubens abd DC as little kids is funny.

SPEED has way too much NASCAR along with car building shows and unigue whips expecially where every show it is "yo guys (insert famous person here) is coming in for wheels and tires and we gotta get it out quickly" i find that very boring for those who remeber speedvision in the early days of speed that had some good programming
