Check the local listings on time on this.  And ther first show will have a lot more than history.  If you want to see the Ack Attack's run you want to be watching the 3rd of December.

Clean living.  Thats how you get coverage.  Great show.  A lot of people spend a lot of time on the speed channel forums bashing speed for their lack of coverage of things involving speed.  Today they got it right.  Not a nascar waffler in sight!  And next Sunday you get another hour of Bonneville bikes!

Get off the stove Grandad.  You're too old to be riding the range.

I thought the job Speed did on covering the LSR top speed shootout between Denis, Mike and Sam was just great.  I've been to other events before that are then covered on TV and usually was really disappointed.  Not this time :-D.

I already can't wait for part II next Sat..  If you guys didn't see this today look to see if it is going to be repeated.  I taped it and I'm sure I'm going to watch it a bunch.

Good job Speed and don't forget to come back and cover the car guys also...

......Thanks too Mike, Sam and Denis and their teams for all the years of hard work they put in so we could witness a fanastic show like they put on.


c ya,

Sum

my advice is send an email to GREEDTV and thank them for the coverage. nice to see some non-left turn motorsports coverage.
