I'm not willing to switch. I'm a happy DirecTV customer. But NASCAR can blow me! I don't watch that at all.

I just came to the board to see if anyone else had posted the link! I put in my vote. I don't want to switch providers either but Speed is sure showing an awful lot of Nascar these days (thank you Fox) and no WRC coverage still.

I'm hoping the number of signatures collected will pressure DirecTV into adding this as a new channel. I'm going to call them and let them know I want it as soon as it's available - Penforhire you should do the same!

This internet voting thing is silly. Obviously no one is going to care about such an anonymous "vote". However, as a viral marketing campaign it seems to be working well, with lots of different boards having someone posting it and calling for people to vote.

The problem is that none of those featured type's of motorsport would create 1/10 the revenue or fan base of NASCRAP. This too will go the way of Speedvision. Like it or not but our redneck hill billy friends pay the bills to allow other forms of motorsports to be seen on TV.
