Default SAVE WRC and all the other quality racing on SpeedTV. don't let Nascar takeover. Sign this petition:

if you thought the '05 SpeedTV programming for racing sports other than hick merry-go-round was limited, it threatens to be even worse in '06. As it stands at this point they'd may as well rename it to "the NASCAR channel".

don't leave <b>professional</b> and <b>skilled</b> race drivers to be outclassed by "left-turners".

Default Follow the money trail. I doubt WRC/F1/etc. generate anything close to NASCAR

In terms of revenue for Speed.tv.
