I seem to remember USAC's Kevin Miller saying on DO's radio show sometime over the summer that they now had the rights to the old ESPN "Thunder" broadcasts and they'd be showing them during the off season.

So, just a friendly reminder to Mr. Miller.
It's now the off season!
Please don't make us wait anymore, let's get on with the best racing that's ever been on TV. Especially the Ventura races. They were awesome!

Thanks,

Jeff

PS
Is DO's radio show at Kelly's Pub Too over for the season? I tried tuning in the last few weeks & I got nothing.

I have around 40 of them on VHS....Hopefully sometime here soon I will be able to transfer them to DVD. I have the machine to do it...Just need to make the time. I know there were some really good races back in the day!!

I copied a bunch of thunder races and other races to DVD a while back. I also copied over a few DO and the King shows. Now that there was entertainment.

A couple of months ago the website name changed to www.RacinwithdoShow.com and the show is still going and will keep on thru the winner and on and on. We have been doing either TV, Radio or webcast for 18 years.
Monday night 7pm est www,RacinwithdoShow.com
if you want to listen to the old show go to www.ustream.tv and type in Huggypole in the search.
Thanks

Here is the link to all the ESPN Thunder races that I uploaded to YouTube.

Click on this link: http://www.youtube.com/results?searc...intestine&aq=f

These go all the way back to 1987 and I'm up to 196 videos. Hope everybody enjoys. This will last you for most of the winter.

Since the original poster mentioned it, here is a USAC Western States Midget Race from April 16, 1994. I posted this up earlier this month.

Also has a ton of old USAC races. Has the 1970 Hoosier Hundred from start to finish, I would love to see that many people show up to the Hoosier Hundred now.
