Speedtv is also streaming it on their website, does anyone know if that stream will go all night when it is not on the tube?

If they are streaming it on Speed2 as ContiChallnege was, it'll be like espn3, your cable company will have to have the channel and you will have to have it as one of the ones you pay for. My cable company is one that carries Speed2 but not in one of my packages so I get a, sorry you don't get this channel.

That's what I heard too. Then again, I'll probably be asleep by the time they go off air!

This weekend at the 24 Hours of Daytona, the feature class with the Daytona DP cars had only 14 entries. Really kind of a joke considering all the hoopla from Speed channel about the event. Helps to own the track, the series and the TV channel when marketing the event. Only thing saving the event is the secondary GT class.

I am a big fan of the event and the track, been there numerous times, including back in the late 1960's . Guess I was spoiled from when the 24 Hrs was a event for the International Championship for GT Manufacturers with the Ferrari 512S, Ford GT40, Lola T70, Chaparral, Alfa Romeo, Porsche 906, Porsche 908, Porsche 917 and Shelby Cobra doing battle. Not to mention the difference in the talent level of the drivers. And the only way you got to see these races was to be there.

Just the ramblings of an old man. Please pardon the interruption.

The GT class may be secondary in outright speed but it's where the action is in my opinion. They have a very full field in that class.
