Trackside at Midnight?

The good news is you can catch an ASA race on Speed tonight at 8:00 ET. But even that is a replay of the Lakeland race, it was shown live then but if ya missed here is another chance.......

For some reason, which I cannot fathom, Trackside, (normally Trackside Live) which I can't imagine will be live in this case, is going to be shown at midnight. They have one guest I would like to see (Mike Mclaughlin) scheduled and two guests who might be mildly interesting (Robby Gordon and Jim Kelley). Still a stupid time to make the show.

Dave DeSpain has David Poole at 11:00 on Wind Tunnel.

Add no live WC qualifying on TV at all, taped at 8:00 on FX. No way I can avoid knowing the results well before then............ :(
 
Not to despair....I read somewhere that Speed will be taking over all the qualifying telecasts pretty soon. After Martinsville or something like that. Generally speaking in the past they get it on live. Have not heard that will change.
 
What is the deal with no live qualifying? 97forever, if this is going to be the new trend I am not going to like it!

:salute:

Well if that is the case I am still not liking it, I don't get Speed yet. Guess I need to be flooding my cable company with phone calls with request for Speed.
 
I got this schedule from chip ganassi racing, must not be accurate though, cause even Nascar.com says taped at 8 on FX.

They must've rolled out one hell of a buffet to pull that off. :D Hey I'm joking, I'm joking! Poole is cool. I keep writing Despain about sprint cars but he hasn't read my emails on the air yet. Maybe this is the week.
 
When I did my TV times both my sorces said Speed @ 3pm live. Thats why I listed it that way. I also saw where it would be on FX after I posted the times. I too will be glad when Speed take over. Sometimes it's hard to be accurte when all your sorce say different times and station.

Yeah Dee.Start harrasing the heck out of them....we finally pestered the Charter folks here until we got it!Speed is cool.Tell your cable provider to leave off about three of those spanish-only channels and feel the need for speed!
 
BGN quals is on SPEED at 3 , now if that live or not is the question.

I think they should have moved trackside to 10:00 instead of the replay or F1 Quals.
