Just when you thought SpeedTV couldn't get worse..

Since falling under the clutches of NASCAR and Fox this channel has nosedived so far from the motorsport excellence it used to have, that I'd rather watch my little nephews race their bikes in the street compared to the garbage they pass off as competition and motorsport on this channel. Outside of F1, there is nothing good on this station. Nothing. Maybe ALMS and the Continental series. After those...all garbage. Do we need a redneck version of American Idol on a motorsports channel? As if there isn't enough of these garbage reality shows on regular tv.

I think this topic is better suited for the OT.
But yes anything outside of live racing this channel is crap.
Although I do like the Barret Jackson Auctions and Mobil 1 Grid Report.
HD Theatre FTW!

I fear people like us are a minority, which is why Speed is headed in the direction it is.
This Sunday afternoon was good though. F1 re-broadcast, Targa Newfoundland and then the FIM race in Portugal.

This topic gets brought every couple of months... Everyone agree's how bad SpeedTV has gotten. Like others have said, the only thing worth while on speed tv is the F1, ALMS and dont forget the DTM and BTCC racing that they have been showing.
I would consider myself the minority here because I do like NASCAR but enough is enough, I don't need 30 shows that talk aboout the same thing.
I have also emailed them numerous times with no avail.

All those hugely funded factory teams should be extremely embarrassed!
