i sat through pinks & i swear that host is just plain annoying. the constant "focus" as he points to his eyes just about earned my coffee cup through the screen.
get rid of pinks no one likes it. get rid of bull run just plain stupid. call me a sheep, but i'm just like the rest of the people here,,,, give me some racing!

I'd love to see more coverage of DTM, LMS, and other foreign series and get rid of the horrid reality shows but I'd love to see BBC's Top Gear and not an American ripoff

Why not shows ABOUT motorsports?!?! Not "reality shows" about pretend racing (Pinks/BSRun, etc.). Not shows about stereo installers (whatever it's called). Not shows about poorly built kit cars, or reviews of supercars or dating sportbike racers. Not shows about NASCAR poker or golf or grilling.

How about honest-to-God shows about motorsports?

I agree! I just re-registered after a two year absence from these boards and I'm seeing the same comments being made. I heard a rumor that Speed was going to start a second channel for circle-track stuff. Hopefully all the reality boy-racer garbage will go with it. Give me back my Speed "Channel"

EDIT: Oops! I meant Speedvision. Wow! Has it been that long?

Speedvision is dead - Long live Speedvision...

Now there was a station! I didn't have time to watch all the stuff I wanted to, the tapes were backing up (pre DVR days) and after a couple of months I had to make tough decisions on what to quit taping/watching, easily 5 hours a day. Thanks to Speed TV I don't have those problems anymore.

I agree. MORE RACING!

I'm really tired of the reality tv on speed. The tow truck show was the last straw for me. "the stereo installer show: LOL And for the love of god, if you're going to continue running that show get some hot chick to start the pinks races.

There is nothing I must watch and the internet is filled with cool car racing stuff. I paid way too much for a seat at the first Edmonton CART race. There wasn't one person within ear shot of my seat that knew anything at all about car racing except that Tony Stewart has a new kitchen. The seat was uncomfortable and most of the fans drunk. Attending the sport live isn't necessarily an answer. I'm grateful to SPEED for providing so many options that I actually do like. Victory By Design is excellent! Varsha, Hobbs, and Matchett are awesome but not available in this country. Some years ago Dave Despain took a lot of hits for supporting NASCAR. I joined in on the "NASCAR sucks" chant but Dave said I should go to a race first. I did. It was an awesome latemodel race on Calgary's banked half mile. I realized then that stock car racing is exciting but stock car racing on TV is not, hence the need for add-on soap opera/talk show stuff. Those Stock Car Runoffs in Irwindale are probably just as cool as SCCA Runoffs, neither of which seem ever to be on when I am near the TV. My best treat ever was the SCCA Runoffs on Christmas Day! I wouldn't miss a summer day no matter what was on TV (except F1). I would like SPEED to replay all of the summer car races that I miss during the winter. I even buy stuff advertised on SPEED! Keep up the great work SPEED and thank you.

Top Gear in HD would sound pretty freakin' cool.

I would love to see LMS on speed. Also some lower tier open wheel series.

Speed used to broadcast some CART/CC races. I specifically remember watching Vancouver and Surfers Paradise in 2002 on Speed. Are they sitting in a vault somewhere? BRING 'EM OUT!

More racing and way less of the stupid reality stuff. I remember when I use to watch Speed all night long when I got home from work. Now I'm looking for movies, Cops, Andy Griffith reruns, anything but the worthless reality shows on Speed. Speed used to be about racing. Pinks, Bullrun, etc. do not apply. That is not racing and I don't watch.

I find myself watch shows like Fuel TV's Thrillbillies more than anything on Speed these days.
