Is USAC going to have any dates on TV this year?

Next USAC TV Broadcasts:


K&N USAC Silver Crown Series presented by Optima Batteries
"Copper on Dirt" Manzanita Speedway
April 19th at 5pm eastern on VS. Channel
Re-Air on April 24th at 5pm est


USAC/CRA Sprints & MOPAR USAC National Midgets & Western Midgets
"Copper on Dirt" Manzanita Speedway
May 10th at 5pm eastern on VS. Channel
Re-Air on May 15th at 5pm est

What the heck is VS.? Even on my Satellite provider I don't have that channel. I have Spanish soap opera channel but not this VS. channel.

Guess I see where USAC ranks with people like Speed, and ESPN. Heck Dodgeball can make it onto the ESPN oucho but USAC can't?

If they signed up that Bateman character to announce, I'd prolly watch it, too!!!

:applaud:Versus TV:rolling

I just saw that The Outlaws got a deal with Speed. It includes at least 3 live races and several tape delayed races.

How can The Outlaws get a deal and USAC cannot?

Actually, you can pick broadcast most anything, if you buy the airtime.

USAC had a live show once.....remember Thursday Night Thunder? And the battles between Irwin and Stewart - among others??? The Chili Bowl; PRI Show; (non USAC Sanctioned though) Turkey Night and Night before the 500 should all be televised....My guess is - with the success of the pay-per view event this last year - Speed will pick up the Chili bowl for 2009 or 2010...maybe that will translate to some USAC events being televised on Speed....

I doubt you ever see the Chili Bowl on anything but PPV. The leaders of the Chili Bowl have said many times the reason it won't be on tv is time constraints and commercials dictating the program. I remember when the Chili Bowl was on tv (ESPN) and it was interupted by commercials and sportscenter updates and those weren't warmly received then.

Thursday Night Thunder was on the same level as Sunday Morning Church in my hose. We never missed both.

Bingo! It's always about money. WoO will either pay to be on, or they have to find advertisers to foot the bill or both.

And once again Aussie Midget Fan, you don't have a clue. Because you say it, doesn't make it so.
