on again tomorrow at 5.30pm i think

I am really sorry Rob but Dont expect:

1. to see any of Zen Performance
2. to know what is going on
3. to see any of the practice / qualifying
4. to see the deluge that happened just before the finals
5. to see any of the times coming in within the finals
6. to see any club class guys let alone any you know
7. a map of the circuit
8. a knowledgeable description of the lap
9. to be entertained
10. a proper description of the actual event .... even the TV guide lists it as:
TIME ATTACK SERIES
RD 3 : KNOCKHILL
Fancy the drift cars ? Here they go again, but now facing a proper track, and trying to beat the clock !
wtf ???

Apart from that - feast away

:roll:

Motors TV is no Eurosport is it.

Their best coverage seems to be reserved for the CORR series racing and a lot of the American stuff they buy in, French Andros Trophy (I quite enjoy) and some of the DTM racing.

Race and Rally is quite good sometimes but the commentary can be a bit boring and the coverage on occaison has been very poor. Maybe there should be a 24hr JapCar sport channel showing D1/TA/Circuit racing. I'd never get any sleep or work done :D

I smell BigPower Productions coming to a TV near you soon!! :woohoo: Anyone got a broadcast camera handy \:D/
Buggers cancelled my op just a couple of days before it was due. Inconsiderate barstewards!! :rant:

Waiting now for another execution date!!:headhack:

Dill - the coverage was shockingly bad on TV last year. Club challenge guys hardly got any coverage at all and it was all commentated by a clueless american.

This year will be much different we are told with 1 hour long programmes and a more in depth coverage of both pro and club challenge.

I look forward to it, and if I get more than the 0.2 seconds of tv time i got at knockhill then all well and good :thumb:
