Speed Channel Trial

My cable company had a free trial period of the speed channel. I always thought that I would like the channel since I like cars but found that I would never pay for it. It is just marathons of things that I could care less about like Low Rider or Hot Import Night

It is a channel dedicated to cars and some programs are not great. I NEED this channel though for my F1 season and GT2, P1, etc racing! I watch the show with Vida Guerra for all the wrong reasons

They have some nice shows on there as well, I love Speed!

I am consyantly watching the speed channel. I will watch anything other than NASCAR. I cant stand it for some reason. I guess I dont see the talent in making high speed left turns. I enjoy the following

1 NASA races
2. GT 1,2,3
3. ALMS
4. Sebring
5. super cars exsposed
6. hot import nights
7. tuner transformation
8. motor week
9. a bunch of others I cant remeber the name of right now. lol

Its worth every pennt imo

I guess I do like some of it but it doesn't have as much stuff as I would like. What I really like is shows like Motorweek that review the latest cars and shows that talk about the latest developments in the car world. If it had more of that they I would definitely be in...

I like Speed Channel (It is park of our cable package) for certain racing shows only. A lot of the other shows are junk, but when those just shows come on I just turn the channel.
