What is Speed channel doing interrupting WRC! (merged thread) part 1

meebs 05-17-2002 11:08 PM

Nascar TV owns you!
 
So... ummm... it's 8:09pm PST right now. Just SAW THE ADVERT FOR WRC TO PLAY AT 11PM EST... my satellite says WRC is on now... and yet NASCAR TV IS STILL GOING. Die speedchannel... die.

Has NasCrap TV taken over??? Those WRC drivers could kick those Good Ole Boy's ass's anyday!

Mister Toro 05-17-2002 11:14 PM

So what's the holdup, Speedchannel?

Are we going to have to go over to [url]www.wrc.com[/url] to get the news without being able to watch it unfold at 30 frames per second?

Nascar is like a cancer, slowly eating away at life's enjoyment...
Atlas' Kids 05-17-2002 11:14 PM

This is ludicrous!!! I'm flipping out!!! What the hell is going on!!

I waited all day after following the rally stage by stage and now I cant even see it!

They're not even showing any of the qualifying!! Its just a bunch of babbling nitwits around a table. The only good part of this programming is when the cars drive by and drown out their comments!!!:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

DonA 05-17-2002 11:16 PM

This has to be the most boring racing show ever! I'm not in the mood to watch a bunch of guys "talk bout the good ole days of NASCAR"


:mad:

There were some technical difficulties during the rally due to weather.

wrc.com could not always get their chopper off the ground. Maybe there isn't any airable footage? :confused:

Oh, BS! Then they could at least scroll a message saying that or some *****!! Sonsab*tches! Exactly the kinda crap people expected them to pull someday after Fox made speedvision drink their magic nascar kool-aid. BAH!!!!!!

Atlas' Kids 05-17-2002 11:19 PM

Do you guys think that it would have anything to do with the rally just ending this morning?

I mean, usually they have more time to get things edited... and Ralph gets a chance to do his voiceovers. Maybe they just jumped the gun and thought they'd be able to do it... I'm hoping anyway. Or am I just tired and can't figure out the timing?

:monkey: NASCAR:monkey:
DonA 05-17-2002 11:23 PM

I would think since they have done a few rallys already they would have a good idea how long it takes to edit and what not.
But the rally did run at least 55mins late if not more I lost connection to wrc radio and couldn't get it back. So maybe they didn't have time?

I can't take another minute of these fat dimwits having their roundtable discussion on crap they had ALL DAY to discuss on NASCAR TV!!

Tell me when it's over...
WagonMonster 05-17-2002 11:25 PM

I got cable for one reason...WRC

I hate the nitwits who run television :mad:
wrx420 05-17-2002 11:26 PM

I hope they show it, I think qualifying/happy hour went over so hopefully they just pushed everything back.
hoping...
waiting....
WagonMonster 05-17-2002 11:26 PM

and another thing....

6 FECKING HOURS A DAY OF NASCAR ISN'T ENOUGH!?!?!?!

Damn Rednecks
meebs 05-17-2002 11:27 PM

Atlas' Kids 05-17-2002 11:27 PM

WHEW!!!

Jersey Mike 05-18-2002 01:23 AM

a good site for rally news is rally-live.com for when the boon dock blasters are running in circles
Red-Impreza 05-18-2002 01:28 AM

I'm sure this was just a little scheduling boo-boo, but it sure felt like rubbing salt in an open wound to me.
Lifino 05-18-2002 10:34 AM

HAHAHA this is one of the funniest threads in Motorsports in a long time! For a minute there I thought we were going to need the riot police...
63Alpine 05-18-2002 10:49 AM

You guys need to cut back on the Red Bull or something.

Have you forgotten what WRC coverage was like last year? Bitch all you want about NASCAR but it is paying the bills so you can see same-day coverage of WRC.
Thug 05-18-2002 11:58 AM

Jesus, what a bunch of whiney beochs. :rolleyes:
driggity 05-18-2002 12:41 PM

This was the greatest mistake ever. I was screwing around and forgot to switch over to Speed until 8:30 and what was I greeted with? The very beginning of WRC coverage. Speedchannel Rulez!!!!!:D
STi_Pete 05-18-2002 08:23 PM

Is it me or does FOX Media Totally srcew up every station that they touch........

Heres to the People @ FOX

:monkey:

Hmmm can we find out if any anti trust laws are being broken... :rolleyes:
slidewaysmike 05-18-2002 09:17 PM

SPEED sucks! Some of us had our TIVO programmed to record the broadcast. SO now I have a half hour of crap, and an uncompleted recording of leg 1.

That's okay I say to myself, they always rebroadcast the previous nights leg @6:00pm EST the next day! I'll record it then.

But guess what? Now that broadcast got pre-empted too!! They just plain old cut right into the WRC broadcast so we could all enjoy the very important practice for the Winston!

:mad::mad:

Thanks a lot FOX.:monkey:

Al 05-18-2002 10:16 PM

They are obviously having problems with the feed from Argentina and hav'nt got the edits done in time. We should all be down on our knees thanking them for airing the WRC series and repeating each day's stages several times. The market it small and they could pull the plug at any time.
Eric SS 05-18-2002 11:42 PM

What is SPEED channel doing! INturupting WRC!!!
 
I lopve NASCAR and WRC but give me a break!!! Why interupt WRC for anything!!

Eric
Clegg 05-18-2002 11:42 PM

HOLLLY MOTHER F'N GOD *** is SpeedTV doing?!
 
***?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!

They cut into the WRC coverage for NASCAR ****!!!!!! MID WAY!!!!


ARGH!!!!
driggity 05-18-2002 11:42 PM

WRC interrupted for Nascar!!!!
 
All I can say is boo!!!!:mad: Even if they are going to come back to the rally this sucks!!!!. Damn Speed
Eric SS 05-18-2002 11:42 PM

hehe. I posted the same thing at the same time :)

Eric
RidinLow 05-18-2002 11:42 PM

WT- F is up with this breaking NASCRAP news bull*****??? This is so messed up! :mad: :mad:
Clegg 05-18-2002 11:43 PM

I am in SHOCK!!!

I mean.... ***!?
driggity 05-18-2002 11:43 PM

Me too. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

And Boo Hiss Boo for Speed :mad:
meebs 05-18-2002 11:43 PM

I just can't understand these morons... the reason why it's on at 11 is because the fan base is limited to begin with... I really hate them. Nothing like a little slap in the face. WE DON'T GIVE A **** ABOUT NASCRAP!
Eric SS 05-18-2002 11:43 PM

lol. Everyone posted this at like the same time

Haha, see the three other threads about this :) Boy are we needy
meebs 05-18-2002 11:45 PM

No... there isn't a "problem with the edits". This is a blatent marketing tactic to try to broaden NASCRAPS fan base. Here comes another scathing email to... really the only thing speedvison does is VOICEOVERS... they don't do the meat of the editing.
Al 05-18-2002 11:46 PM

I am sorry I made the above post. I was all geeked up watching Argentina and all of a sudden at 10:43 we get good ol' boys. ***, ***? Why?:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
driggity 05-18-2002 11:47 PM

Its only 8 for us left siders. Still pissed off though :mad: And who is sitting around waiting for Nascar highlights? People are watching cause they want to see Rally. I believe its time to email Speed
meebs 05-18-2002 11:48 PM

I feel like strangling these hicks... I love how they think this is going to make us interested.
ChrisW 05-18-2002 11:49 PM

well, I have already fired off my complaint to the nascrap channel. I suggest you all do the same.:mad:
erikgj 05-18-2002 11:50 PM

Speedvision please come back. I do like the new coverage of the WRC. But talk about total amateur hour network. I hate NASCAR the WWF of the racing world.

Erik
Skeandhu 05-18-2002 11:51 PM

Speed Channel is on crack
 
I'm so PO'd!!!!!!! Speed Channel cuts into WRC coverage for Winstin Cup Round Up???

[COLOR=red][b][SIZE=4]W T F???[/SIZE] [/b][/COLOR]

It's a good thing I was watching it, the poor bastards who are taping it are going to be some pissed!!! :mad: :mad:

Redneck-racing has crossed the line tonight!:monkey:
Clegg 05-18-2002 11:53 PM

Imagine how pissed off people will be who TIVO'd it... watching it later on and BOOM Nascar Update! :)
meebs 05-18-2002 11:55 PM

what i emailed to speedcrapin
 
HYUCK HYUCK!

[i]"Really guys... this isn't going to make rally fans like NASCRAP. Talk about a slap in the face! This is almost as blatant as Rubens letting Michael by...

Isn't the reason why you put rally on at 11pm is due to the limited fan base? What is so pertanant about this info that can't wait for the other 6 hours/day of NASCAR programming. I am truly amazed."[/i]
Thug 05-18-2002 11:56 PM

Im playing the smallest violin in the world just for all you guys.
Sure it sucks. But is it really [b]that[/b] big of a deal? No need to get your panties in a bunch.
aview2nv 05-18-2002 11:56 PM

Seems I had the same idea and sent a letter as well. Funny, I caled it NASCRAP as well.

Scott
Thug 05-18-2002 11:58 PM

Think about this
 
For every WRC fan in the good ol' US of A there's 1,000 NASCRAP fans. You do the math. $$$
RidinLow 05-19-2002 12:00 AM

Yeah, but I wonder if there were any WRC fans that love NASCAR enough to appreciate getting Rally Argentina interrupted with this crap. :mad:
driggity 05-19-2002 12:01 AM

And how many Nascar fans are watching WRC and hoping that it gets pre-empted with Nascar coverage? Not many I would think. Doesn't seem like sound business to me.

Yes. Yes it is. There's MORE than enough NASCRAP on Speedvision, but to cut into a rally to show a review???? :monkey:

What can't wait 'till tomorrow, or at least a 1/2hr until WRC is finished??!! "And around the oval they go, again and again" How exiting. [img]http://www.stopstart.fsnet.co.uk/smilie/puke.gif[/img]
Clegg 05-19-2002 12:11 AM

man if you are going to merge a thread, name it right....


WRC not WRX!!!!

hehehehe
North Ursalia 05-19-2002 12:11 AM

You could always just watch it on one of the [i]other[/i] networks covering the WRC... oh wait, there *isn't* one! Yeah it sucks, but get my point ;)?
