Besides street racing that we do one or twice every week, what kind of racing do you guys like?

For me, these are the ranks:
1) Formula 1
2) WRC (World Rally Championship)
3) BTCC (British Touring Car Championship)
4) DTM (German Touring Master)

I also like the Speedvision world challenge, but I really don't like drag racing and NASCAR. I know a lot of people will hate me saying that. Sorry! That's me who loves Initial-D action!

Personally would love bike racing more, perhaps more chances of accident, which F1 lacks of.... the best thing i like bout F1 is when the safety car comes out... Benz SL55 AMG!
i love the initial D actions too, but do ppl really , do they really dare to do that? i mean they are practically running at 60-70 mph downhill! drifting down all the way... it's bad enough in the movies, and this is animated! So i guess we could figure out the danger....

Aww man, Initial D is great!! Only if I had a skyline and a nice twisty road...As for my favorite racing, I would have to say either drag racing or Speedvision Touring Car racing (I love the Realtime ITR's and Roger Foo's hatch).

you have to let me know when all the good stuff comes on on speedvision. i just got it when we got digi cable.

 

[Itchy]

I honestly don't like to watch races on TV for some reason. Sometimes drag racing if there are some good imports, but that's it. I like to watch the import car shows on SpeedVision, but never see them on.

i like watching gran touring stuff i love rally...whats really kewl is the illegal home made vids of drag racing, them shiets gets pretty crazy, or those videos by 360vid...they have some good coverage of events like nopi, hot import dayz/nights and drag events

Try www.speedvision.com. They have the schedule there, and a lot of other good stuffs.

WRC is number one on my list.

Can't get enough of them e-brakes on tarmac man.

It's awesome how they have up to date coverage of WRC now:

thursday= Rally XS
friday = update of day 1
saturday = update of day 2
sunday = update of day 3
monday = summary of whole event

I could do without the 23 hours a day of NASCAR though.

Anything on the speed channel except for nascar......WRC owns

 

[Tirod-EJ]

i love WRC and import drag... also autocross and f1

 

[CivicDude2000]

I really like watching rally races. Its cool to see some mad drifting skills.

 

[hsport]

The Speedvision channel has a new name guys!! If you did not know, it is now called the Speed Channel. There is going to be a whole lot more nascar racing on this channel.

 

[Kloth]

They still use the "speedvision" name on some programs, like the GT races today, it had speedvision in the corner of the screen, maybe it takes a while to change it all over. Im starting to get sick of all the nascar on that channel......They need the importvision channel or something.......

 

[InNEEDofSPEED]

1. F1
2. BTCC
3. WRC
4. The Le Mans series (ALMS, Le Mans, ELMS, etc.)
5. Speedvision GT series (only because Derek Bell is God)
6. DTM
7. Australian Touring Car
All others are tied around the bottom.

Favorite all time car movie:

Getaway in Stockholm 2

Getaway in Stockholm 2

That was a cool movie. I downloaded a 20 minute clip of it. Do you have any idea if that was really rigged or not? At the very beginning of the movie with the Porshe, a station wagen that was supposed to be a cop car pulled him over. Then he decided to take off. That seemed to be the only part that was probably fake.

[InNEEDofSPEED]

Yeah the fist part of Getaway in Stockholm was rigged. I've done massive research on both movies, if you notice, the "cop" trails them for awhile and then just decides to try to pull him over, the rest however is all real. You seem to be talking about Getaway in Stockholm, but have you seen number 2 with the Supra and Escort Cosworth?

 

[lsb16]

stock car racing

 

[Itchy]

......They need the importvision channel or something.......

Hell Yeah!!!

No, I haven't seen the second one. Do you know where there is a site that I can download a clip from?

thanks,
