All the way until Speed decides they'd rather show truck
qualifing than wait for a bunch of losers to decide to
start racing.

In-****ing-credible.


Go fast. Take chances.

I believe they aired the finish later in the evening. Probably
replacing one of the SBK races. Or perhaps they took over the slot for
one of the "Paid Programming" broadcasts? Either way, I probably won't
have it on my DVR because SpeedTV and DirecTV can't get their ****
together enough to list the races properly in the guide!

I'm so fed up with SpeedTV and AMA / DMG!!

They hype this race up so much and cut to not just Nascar... or Nascar
truck series... but Nascar truck series QUALIFYING!!! WTF?!?! Why
didn't it even surprise me?

I definitely think both AMA and SpeedTV screwed up! I'm not sure how
they think they are going to attract new viewers with this type of
****. They've gotta start taking screw ups like this seriously and
come up with plans to avoid doing it again in the future.

My suggestion is to LET THEM RACE!!!
