Why does Speed Channel's programing schedule suck so bad? I swear
nearly everytime (95%) I turn on Speed they're showing flippin' NASCAR.
And it seems they have all their good programing on weekdays at like
ten o'clock in the morning! What the hell?! Is it the same for
everyone else, or is it just me?

You can view the daily or weekly programming schedule at www.speedtv.com . A
VCR can be your friend.

Speed channel used to be good before NASCAR took over...why don't they just
rename it to, the NASCAR channel? Sorry, but I am one of the few people
that just isn't into NASCAR. I used to watch Speed channel all the time,
now I barely watch it.

Well said. It leaves me with the same impression

.. ..

I agree. It was the main reason I went with the cable package I had
chosen. Now, it sux just like the rest of the 77 channels in the
package. I just canceled it 2 weeks ago. Of course they tried to get me
to keep it. Not Interested......

At least the Spike channel has a few good shows.

From someone who used to be an official at the local roundy round track, I
can tell you I am no fan of NASCAR. The local NASCAR track was having
problems with tech. The tech people were all racers and friends of someone
and favoritism was rampant. I knew the promoter, he was telling me about his
troubles with tech people. I wasn't applying for the job, but I told him he
needed someone who detested that form of racing, but knew what to look for
inside an engine. He smiled and said "someone exactly like you, huh?" I was
temporarily retired from Drag Racing, they were offering what I considered a
good amount of money, so, like an idiot, I took the job.
Over the course of the next three years, I kicked out a number of people for
infractions ranging from being under weight (One guy was 190 lbs light after
a 1% scale calibration allowance!) to fully ported and polished heads and
stroker motors. I almost came to blows too many times to count and had my
life threatened a couple of times. I stuck it out for about three years. My
partner in the drag car wanted to go racing again, so I quit.
Ran into the promoter a couple of years ago. He offered to make me the local
Tech director of NASCAR. I told him I would do it, but he had to do two
things:
First: Buy me a 10MM Smith and Wesson.
Second: Figure out how to arrange Diplomatic Immunity for me. I would have
to be declared a foreign diplomat so I couldn't be prosecuted for shooting
some a**hole circle jerker.
He said "That probably means you aren't interested?"
We had a good laugh.

It was a great station when it started, but when
Rupert (Faux News) Murdock took over, it went to ****
real quick like. It used to have cl***ic movies and
a much wider variety of auto programming. Now it's
barely worth watching, and the commercials come fast
and furious...
