your welcome Chris ehhh heck with all these series, 24 Hours of LeMons, Chumpcar, GRM $200X Challenge is where the true racings at -
100% PERFECTION, love the color, engine, interior, wheels, oil intercooler, EVERYTHING!

I gotta admit, you certainly are improving man! You did a nice job on one of my favorite Datsuns and second, this is nicer than most you find nowadays
-
Beautiful perfection. I <3 Pro Touring, the only way I think muscle cars and classic cars should be built nowadays!
-
Welp Brendan, thanks for the inspiration to getting my butt in gear to build again! I love love love love this car, my favorite I think from the era! I didn't know anyone made this version, since you know, it wasn't really a racing version

DING DING DING!!!! First part......NAILED Yeah ESPN and TNN were the good ones too and they weren't even a motorsports channel. SCCA has classes and series inside of the sanctioning body like FIA, which is I think Chris was getting at. -

ohhhhh boy What I think is funny is how everyone says, well NASCAR gets the viewers, that's how it is....now go back to Speedvision, there were tons of things to watch, nothing ever got more coverage, everyone loved sports car racing also loved nascar, then watched an F1 race, happened ever since the 60's on to the early 00's where the death of a motorsports channel happened. But notice EVER SINCE Fox bought Speedvision, the rise of Nascar started, and slowly killed off the races on the channel to show more nascar coverage and then when the series wasn't doing so great they say, "well no one watched, so we cut it" people watched nascar! well how are we supposed to like what we don't see?!?!? No wonder we lost viweres, you cut the program, which slowly lost viewers and money so the series had to cut off the programming on the channel, funny!! It's interesting how over in Europe which I can name 5 different TV broadcasters off the top of my head who broadcast EVERY TYPE of racing and everyone enjoys it? huh, very interesting indeed. I think it's EXTREMELY hilarious that there are THOUSANDS of people now that go against Speed, the forums are filled with attempts to have them realize their screw up, and no one ever replies or does anything about it, obviously with this switched coverage of the ALMS, which is so american it's not even freaking funny! Contributes more toward the auto industy than ANY other series in america and even worldwide. But the guys at Speed will GLADLY respond to a question about their BS car shows that they'll rerun 43 times a week. and no there isn't just a , well this is how it is you have to deal with it, I say rubbish, there is something we can do -

Oh, I know, I know I like racing too but ever since Speedvision went off it just went downhill quickly. Not all of us have HD Theater or can get MotorsTV or Eurosport. They are going to lose fans and viewers garaunteed! I should have to have the option of other channels or off, they should cater to the fan for showing live and full coverage. and trust me, I know about the horrible coverage of Grand Am and worse for the real race series, the Continental series and the F1 is getting better I must say but even with that. -
Welp, looks like you lost another fan, along with thousands. Seriously? they can show extensive coverage of practice, qualifying, Shootout, Duels and the ungodly amount of hours for Barrett Jackson, but they can't show it on Speed or other channels. Wow americas losing it with motorsports, especially for a series that's more american than nascar and wants more viewers... What if the Superbowl or the Daytona 500 was only live online?

I need to visit the forum more well you guys said everything I was going to

24 Hour at Daytona
Nick F40 replied to Nick F40's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Oh and I am quite excited!! It's not the best, I mean it's run in partner with NASCAR but it hasn't fully sponserized or commercialized yet so it's still grassroots in a sense, like the 24 of Nurburgring. ALMS has the best sports cars but I mean it's not bad But hey, since we don't frickin see FIA GT!
