    i'd watch nascar again if they'd go to more road tracks and throw on rain tires and windshield wipers . Btw probably 15yrs ago the busch series or whatever it's called went to the Montreal F1 track and it started raining about the last ¼ of the race . Nascar changed the tires and slapped on a wiper , holy #### at the carnage you woulda thought they put the drivers gfs in the cars . Half the lineup crashed out in idk 10 lapps .

    They are pretty decent if all u want is local news channels , they have some movie channels to and older TV shows and various other stuff.. I used to have one in my blue truck, seems they work better the closer to a major city you are

    They been doing more road courses the last couple years and racing in the rain. They started a Chicago street race a couple years ago that's been pretty good . Kinda like f1 is doing with racing on the vegas strip. I agree road courses are more fun to watch... but me personally I wish they'd do more short tracks which they are starting to do as well.... fantastic racing at those.

    yes sir, it’s a pretty good time, generally go to the Nov race. But wife has cancer so we have missed the last few yrs. If she is up to it, we will go this yr as I believe this is the last time the championship race will be here for a while.

    I don't remember exactly when the lids went to plastic, late 60's maybe.
