OK, just throwing this out for discussion, no bone to pick....

Why do Allstars & POWRi have TV contracts with MavTV but not more "prestigious" USAC & WoO?

Probably Tony Stewart's name recognition is part of it, but?????

Not putting Allstars & POWRi down either, I like both of them....

Hit the nail on the head.
My question is why after all these years why can't Dish Network carry MAVTV?

Usac is sponsored by the competition Amsoil.

I'm not an insider on this stuff... but MAVTv is obviously a Lucas Oil Product. USAC is an Amsoil sponsored entity. WoO got a new oil sponsor this year, but there's obviously competition between Lucas and WoO on the late model side of things. All Stars obviously are Mobil1, but in the promos and shows I haven't seen a lot of Mobil1, so I'd guess they kind of got Mobil 1's blessing since that's probably more of NASCAR focused sponsorship than anything. Just guessing here... which is dangerous.

All about Lucas Oil. That's really all there is to it. And for those with dish who want Mav, grab a firestick and get a cheap IPTV. I pay $8 a mo the for more than you'll ever get with Dish, cable, etc..

MAVTV is owned by Lucas Oil, they are not going to promote another series that is sponsored by competitor ( AMSOIL )
