SPEED to be turned into an all sports network like ESPN. That, in a word, sucks....

I saw that article too. It is the only channel I miss since dropping cable/satellite. Guess I'll have to get used to streaming Grand-Am TV.

Yes, and on AT&T. It's the only place to watch grand am, Australian V8 super car and the Continental challenge races, oh and the NASCRAP stuff too. Be interesting to watch this unfold....

SPEED is definitely my main go-to channel - for Formula1, AMA Supercross, AMA Motocross . . .

Bummer if they drop this stuff. :thumbsdown:

I'd pay GOOD money for an online, HD, streaming and/or on-demand service for racing material. I would pretty much watch any non-oval racing of any kind and be entertained, but certainly F1, Grand Am, CTSCC, MotoGP, Australian V8s, WRC. I haven't had cable for a couple years now and don't plan on resubscribing, so unless they come up with a service like this, I'll have to continue to rely on the occasional (low-def) online stream and "alternative" methods of acquiring content. :-P

search online, you might be surprised what is available. every 2012 btcc race is on youtube, someone always posts hq video within 24hr. no commercials either, just racing. and there's often interesting stuff on http://www.motorsportworld.tv/channels/
