NASCAR TV Coming?
There could be less NASCAR programming on SPEED Channel in the future. Sources in Phoenix reported that a new "NASCAR TV" Channel, similar to the NFL Network, NBA-TV, the NHL Channel and the soon-to-be-launched Major League Baseball network, is in work. The new entity could be launched in 2007 as part of the new network television package with ESPN/ABC and/or cable giant Comcast taking a partial ownership in the venture. In the meantime, SPEED's programming mix will include more non-NASCAR content and coverage in 2006 including additional Champ Car material and possibly short track racing led by the new National Sprint Car League.(Racing One)
