I hope the rumor is true!
 
Drag Racing Online reported today that there are rumors that Tom Compton, and the NHRA leadership, are looking for a way to get out of the contract with ESPN to broadcast the Mello Yello and Lucas Oil Series. I for one think that is a great idea! Now I just hope the network that picks up the programming is available on my cable system!:D

Maybe MAVTV. That is a Lucas deal.

They need Mark Walter at Motormania tv he does great but he may not be big enough for NHRA but he is better than the Pi??Poor coverage that ESPN does. Still may not help the sportsman though?

With the demise of the Speed Channel,, about all we have up here in the NW, that I know of, is the Velocity channel,, although the Discovery channel will run some automotive type shows from time to time,, Gas Monkey,, Street Outlaws,, so perhaps they would be able to pickup a NHRA contract. No matter what,, somebody please tell them theres more to sportsman coverage than those blasted alcohol cars! My 2 cents.

I've watched some on MavTv. It's pretty good. www.mavtv.com should get you there. I called my cable provider and requested for it to be added to the channel lineup. I watched speed channel quite a bit. I miss it. Hopefully who ever gets the contract will show the s/ss races.

Mav TV is only available on the most expensive cable package here on Long Island, New York. Optimum Cablevision is what we have. I think it's the gold package or something they call it. Big $$$ it is.

Guess I'm just old (No kidding? LOL) but I'm not watching TV on my PC.

I have enough staring at this dang thing by the end of the day.

Ed, most new TV's have a browser built into them. Have Kyle take you to Best Buy.
