Auto Club sportsman finals
 

Did anyone catch it on espn ? John Shaw's run was on there it was a amazing heads up run.

It started 38 minutes late, and as usual, featured 98-percent alky cars, just showing the final rounds of Comp, the '90 Eliminators, Stock and S/S.

They did have a nice, though miniscule, interview with Fletch.... several comments about how OLD some of the drivers were in Stock and S/S, and not much else.

Kept promising an interview with Courtney Force, but it never happened. Maybe she's like her Dad; camera shy when she gets beat....

It was worth waiting for, just to see the Stock Final, though... Didn't realize that John Shaul was 66 years old.... Only 5 years, my junior... LOL!

It just does not make since that they have an hour show dedicated to sportsman but show mostly alky cars. Your average espn viewer probably can not differentiate between the alcohol cars and the nitro cars, and just wonder why they are so slow, and where are the big names. To me if you were going to take a separate hour for sportsman you would make it seem unique, and show more of the full bodied cars, and the variety of cars/engines you get in comp, stk, and ss. Dont get me wrong I love to see the alcohol cars get tv time. I have and hopefully will be working in the alcohol pits next year, as well as taking my first stab at class racing. Im sure that has been brought up many times, but I just had t say it.

I agree. But as long as theres a Force in a class, thats all your gonna see.
