Now that's what I call a tape delayed broadcast. It's not the even the same day or week or month or year. That's OK. I don't get the Outdoor Channel anyway.

While I apreciate all telecast. There is not nearly enough time allotted to it. They were putting hundred lap races and squeezing in twenty comercials and ten interviews on Speed a couple years ago in one hour time frames, The result was seeing about ten laps of actual racing.

I know sponsorship is a key but it's not a way to HIGHLIGHT the sport or promote it without the time needed to put forth a sequenced show and splitting it all up is another detriment to it. Make it a three hour show and show it ten times. Isn't this the show that had the 98 lap feature?

Chuck, please correct me if Im wrong.

An annoucement about Midget racing on TV and you two start complaining right off the bat! Come on guys, at least we have racing on TV, it's a start. It may not be perfect or the way we would all want it but at least it's on there.

And I said I apreciate it. It's not a complaint. it's contrstructive to getting people to tune in again.

Chuck, stating the only ones going to know who's who and whats happening are the ones who already knew about it. Thats a point, not a complaint

P.S. I wonder why everything thats written is taken in the negative. Im gonna make a post describing all the good I know thats come from THIS SITE or message boards in general.

You are absolutely correct. I shouldn't have said that. I want that stricken from the record. Like my dad used to say - "You'll get nothing and like it". I don't get Outdoor Channel.

Chuck,

I think the 98 lap feature you were thinking about was Turkey Night. This is the PRI event down in Florida.
