With the demise of speed has anyone found a way to get the truck racing other than US satellite.
Haven't seen a truck race now for awhile. I think the days of watching trucks and Sprint Cup practices and qualifying are long gone here in Canada unfortunately....

I can get direct tv for $50 a month and i'll get the truck racing back hopefully before Eldora. I've just been holding out for a more economical way to watch.

Speed/Fox 1 is still on Shaw/Star Choice, I watch pretty much every truck race. I don't watch too much practice thou, since its summer time. Have more pressing projects to outside when its on. Channels #274 in HD, or #406 non hd. I wish tsn would get its head of its ass & show Nhra on the weeked. They dont have chase puck anymore, its time tsn to become new motorsports channel in Canada!

I was going to switch to shaw but after doing some research it looks like speed will be gone once their contract is up. From what I found out is speed can not switch to fox sports1 because the crtc license for speed is motorsport only so they are just running out their contracts in Canada

Todays Edwards rumor is Edwards to Gibbs with M&M's as the sponsor. Monster Energy drinks may go full time on Kyles car if this happens. When Edwards was asked if he would ever race for a company that didn't follow his healthy ideals on nutrition he replied " no comment".

Spokesperson from M&M's yesterday denied Carl Edwards will be racing there colors next year. They say Kyle Busch is their guy and will stay their guy. Apparently now Edwards has a clause in his contract that he can't reveal any changes in his status until September similar to what Kenseth had in his. When Kenseth left RFR announced after the Sonoma race that year that he would be leaving. Expect the same this year?

Hmmmmmm,,,,,,,,,JD Gibbs said today that Kyle Busch would keep M&M's as a sponsor for next year. He also said there would be no answer on a 4th car until September. Coincidence?

Wow! Way to go Carl winning at a track I never thought he'd win at. Should lock him into the Chase. Surprised Marcus wasn't stronger today. Here were your top 5 finishers: 99-24-88-1-27

did anybody else notice how Carl almost left subway out of victory lane talk? he thanked all his sponsors except subway. I was surprised but then at the very end before he turned away from the camera he said he was going to get a subway sandwich. That seemed like a red flag to me. hell, he even mentioned cheezits when he was thanking his sponsors. since when did cheezits donate more then subway?!?! :confused:
