Amen, TiVo is worth every penny and then some. My GF is hooked too.

I had TiVo long before my Evo.

Thanks for the tip - I watched both races. That ADVAN Supra is SICK!!!!!!!!!!

I really love Skylines, so it was great to watch those Xanavi Skylines take the championship. Awesome. Proves how ghey NASCAR is...

I don't know how many emails I've wrote to Speed asking them to show the whole freakin' races and not just the 30min highlight show that they air. But they never respond back to me. Maybe I should go to their headquarters and complain in person which is only like 50mins from my house...

I don't think Speed produces the shows in-house, I think they just buy them. So it's up to whoever is actually covering the event to offer full coverage versus 30 minute capsules. Sure you don't get to see as much racing, but at least you don't have to sit through the boring stuff where nothing is happening either. Though sometimes it is nice to have a little continuity when watching an event.

I think televising the whole race would be a too time consuming because I think they're two hour events, and that would cut into all the NASCAR coverage.
