I get all that, However we got tons of channels showing repeats, Austrialian Rules Football , High school Larcross and motorsport game shows and soap operas ect. All that seem to be put there to have something on at multi tv sports bar.

"Sports are a niche form of entertainment.

Auto racing is a niche form of sports.

Sprint car racing is a niche form of auto racing."

This is what a lot of hardcore fans can't seem to understand. I don't like it and I don't always get it either.

The cable sytem in my area recently changed speed to digital channel so I don't get that channel anymore. I don't miss it car auctions, umpteen NAPACAR programs, road racing, GP motorcycle racing = BORING. All That tofu, lautee, fru fru stuff you can have. I miss the Thunder Racing Series on ESPN. I have 7 old tapes with 3 or 4 races on each one. Helps in the off season.

I recall Kevin Miller saying the same thing when he came to USAC a couple years ago.

the live streaming is great. just keep track of their schedule and hope they put it on. i understand why they don't advertise it. people do need to get out to watch them live. i would pay if comes to that as long as the feed is as good as i got for the Hut Hundred. good for those of us who can't make em all.
