Default What happened to the live streaming on Continental Tire Challenge?

Did I miss some announcement? Neither today's race or the last one appear to be streaming. I also haven't seen anywhere that they are scheduled to replace them on NBCS. Anyone know what changed?

Same thing I've seen the last two races. Really unfortunate if they've dropped the coverage.

The Kansas races will not be televised.

I used two monitors to watch live timing and the Twitter feed.....

I really enjoyed that Laguna race. Too bad LRP wasn't broadcast. Some nice racing in this series.

Hopefully they'll post video of battle between James Davison in the TRG Aston Martin and Matt Plumb in the 997. They were trading places up until the Porsche ran out of fuel....

No Tudor = no TV coverage it seems...

That was kind of what I concluded. If the big boys aren't there they won't foot the bill for the cameras and commentators. Too bad because it is really good racing. That is in races where Autometrics doesn't get punted.

That's a shame. Continental Challenge is a lot of fun to watch. I was wondering why I couldn't find the Limerock event anywhere (DVR or Youtube).

I thought my Tivo had missed them somehow. I looked on their site and in the emails they send but could not find anything about TV coverage.
You know what this reminds me of? ALMS. Beginning of the end before they get started. Sad. I don't get FSN1 so no DTM, V8 Supercars, British Touring Cars, nothing, zip, zilch, nada.

There's a ton of stuff on youtube. Full races of DTM, World and British touring cars, IMSA, Tudor, etc. No need for cable unless you need it live.

+1. They have full race broadcasts, and they even take the commercials out. Just watched the Laguna Seca Continental race last night.

Unfortunately I couldn't find anything from the Kansas race last weekend other than a ST car's qual video. I know the wining TRG's Aston's video malfunctioned, would love to see Rim Bum's in-car video for that last 5 minutes.....
