    Yea I think this is great. Some folks on the WERA board are bitching about the one-week delay but I don't think that negative outweighs the positive.

    You get a dedicated show to AMA racing
    You get it during weekend primetime
    You have something very solid to sell to sponsors
    You have EVERY race being broadcast
    You get studio analysis and production

    This is going to help bring in new fans and sponsors IMO. I give it a big



    So again the Daytona 200 will be featuring Loudon racers Eric Wood and Shane Narbonne while the American Superbike race will have Jeff Wood, Scott Greenwood, and Shane Narbonne. Where's the viewing party?!!

    I have the SPEED channel & I'll more than likely be have a couple friends over for the race.

    Since the wife works Friday nights at the bar, Having a few more people over couldn't hurt....

    Yeah, the one week delay isn't an end all for me, i still think it's a great idea. I guess my only gripe about the delay is waiting a week to watch the race kills about half of my internet surfing during the week.

    I have a big screen (60"), surround sound, Speed channel, and a very tolerant girlfriend - noel - we could get a group at my house whenever. I'll def. be watching somewhere.

    Which makes sense. 1-2 week delays kinda take the drama out of racing, don't you think? There aren't too many other sports that delay their broadcasts for that length of time.
