I miss the days of a full field invert. They use to do it in the Busch Clash and it was the shit for a couple laps.

Segment 1: 30 Laps / Full Inversion
Segment 2: 30 Laps
Segment 3: 10 Green Flag laps (No caution laps count)

The 92-97 format is all that's really required.

SPEED could be getting a big shakeup in the near future

Sources: A Fox plan is to flip Speed, not Fuel, into an all-sports channel to compete with ESPN. Fox has talked with leagues & distributors.

John Ourand ‏ @Ourand_SBJ
Sources: Fox's plans are still evolving for an all-sports channel. Nothing is firm yet. They want to do it and are exploring options.

John Ourand ‏ @Ourand_SBJ
Sources: At one point, Fox was talking about converting Fuel into its motor racing channel. Way too early to say whether that will occur.

John Ourand ‏ @Ourand_SBJ
Speed is in 82 million homes. Fuel is in 30 million homes.

John Ourand ‏ @Ourand_SBJ
Sources: Nothing will happen this year with Fox's potential all-sports channel.

Doesn't Fox already have several all-sports channels with Fox Sports 1, 2 and 3? Or is that just an Australian thing.

They have regional Fox Sports Networks, which I think mostly show college sports, and more focused sports channels like Speed and Fox Soccer, but nothing that would be considered an ESPN rival.

I've seen it on my channels list with Bright House, but don't think we get it.

FOX has FSN, but it's more of a regional thing and it depends on where you live (in my case, FS West and Prime Ticket). They show college sports, the regional team's games, and other assorted programming that you probably don't care about.

Fuel's your basic action sports channel that shows MMA sometimes.

I would imagine the most important series and races that SPEED currently show (F1, NCWTS, the Duels, All-star race) would go to this new channel, instead of being moved to the channel with a third of the reach SPEED has?

Would be a shame for the american fans if races like LM24, Rolex24, Bathurst, ARCA (TONA, DEGA) move to the smaller channel.

Bristol will be 'changed' for August's race.

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/98449

No detail on what the changes will be.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

They wouldn't be able to pound the banking down that quickly, would they? Seems like it would be a lengthy process, but I could be wrong.

The changes in 2007 were done between the spring and fall races so surely they could do it again. The need to get it back up to 36 degrees of banking for one thing. It's only 24 on the bottom groove right now.

Except it has never really been 36 degrees like they advertised. It was measured at more like 28 or so degrees if memory serves me right.

Why Blake Koch doesn't have a sponsor in Nationwide.

Rise up and register seems to pretty clearly have Republican leanings without coming out and saying it. I doubt it's a religious issue for ESPN so much as a political one.
