czechhero 32 Posted February 23, 2009 545 I believe. Spot on, 545 it is. One of the better channels on the Virgin package IMO. This is great news, at least we'll get to see Mad Dog after all, after GD failed to book him for the Alan Hunt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tapesuptv 4 Posted February 24, 2009 Thank you for posting up that link, Mark. The programme will reach approximately 16 million homes in Europe, with a very wide coverage as you can see from the above map. To answer Nevs' question: the channel (Motors TV) is free to Sky and Virgin customers, "subscription" is an optional extra to help support the programme and help keep Speedway on our television screens. The £10 charge represents less than 60p per programme, and will all go towards covering the costs of the project. As such, this is a way that Speedway fans who want to see more Speedway on TV can truly help. As a subscriber you will receive a free newsletter, and be pleased in the knowledge that you have helped Speedway to stay on TV. For further details and an application form, please visit our website at: www.webjam.com/speedwayonmotorstv As Mark pointed out, we are still looking for sponsors for individual segments and programmes, with prices starting as low as £30. If you would like to be a part of this project, please do contact me at the address below - I am your UK contact. Similarly, I am happy to answer any other questions you have regarding the programmes. Looking forward to hearing from you, Thank you for your support, Alex Raby Producer: "USA National Speedway 2008" alexraby@gmail.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

srbramble 0 Posted February 24, 2009 Its great that we get to see some more speedway on TV, but why is everyone going overboard about this? It seems to be a little "mickey mouse" to me. When they get Polish or Swedish league racing on, let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteveEvans 248 Posted February 26, 2009 (edited) I know that Swedish or Polish League would be awesome and hopefully they can be on TV at some point. Whatever the standard of the racing, the tight tracks and the American Razamataz will provide good viewing. I have a clip from the US Nationals last year plus a Main Event from August. The quality of racing in the 2nd clip is awesome! Note that this is the original footage that the TV company will use but is not necessarily the final Motors TV product. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1hk1bVRtZU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wKdAe1kn7A...re=channel_page Edited February 26, 2009 by SteveEvans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hector Austin 51 Posted February 27, 2009 Its great that we get to see some more speedway on TV, but why is everyone going overboard about this? It seems to be a little "mickey mouse" to me. When they get Polish or Swedish league racing on, let me know. It certainly is great to see more speedway on TV Sadly though your post shows again how little you know about the sport you claim to support man! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tapesuptv 4 Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) Dear Speedway Fans, After a great meeting to kick off 2008 unofficially last week, with the 2008 Spring Classic, this coming week you have the opportunity to witness the official 40th Anniversary Season Opener from Costa Mesa Speedway. If the racers can surpass the amount of passing that was witnessed in the first programme of 'USA National Speedway 2008' then they will certainly have earned the adulation that they receive from the fans trackside. A scorecard has been uploaded to the programme's official website (www.webjam.com/speedwayonmotorstv) and the direct link is below: http://webjam-upload.s3.amazonaws.com/40th...f35e0__74__.pdf This comes following a suggestion that it may be easier to follow the racing with some form of scorecard, and I hope that this will add even further to your viewing pleasure. We listen to all constructive criticism, and will do everything feasibly possible to improve the series. Everyone involved with 'USA National Speedway 2008' is a Speedway fan themselves, so it really is a true case of 'for the fans, by the fans'. I hope that you will give the series the support it needs by tuning in. The broadcast schedule for the 40th Anniversary Season Opener is: Monday 6th April 2009 at 3pm Tuesday 7th April 2009 at 6pm Wednesday 8th April 2009 at 2pm Friday 10th April 2009 at 11pm Saturday 11th April 2009 at 11am For a full schedule of all remaining broadcasts in 2009, visit our website: www.webjam.com/speedwayonmotorstv And for those who missed last week's 2008 Spring Classic, the last repeat is tonight at 8pm, so you're going to have to get in quick!

snapper-racing.co.uk 6 Posted March 30, 2009 i really enjoyed the speedway last night from costa mesa, bad luck for billy hamill! and whats with the camera angles, there a bit weird Im watching right now - and agree it needs a bit more "polishing" shoot the cameraman - needs a bit more smooth tracking and the voice over needs to be a bit clearer - I keep hearing breathing on the mic. Other than that Im really pleased I get to see USA speedway on the box for only an extra £1 - and im sure as the season goes on the presentation will get better A view f the pits and perhaps and interview would be cool too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The camera work was terrible! The track is far too small to make it entertaining Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
