Over the weekend speedvision had MX racing and even had lawnmower racing but no quad racing. Do they ever broadcast any?

The people at speedvision do not like quads. I wrote them a few times about showing some quad events of any kind and they would not even write me back. They are just like some of those 2-wheel bikers that we have to put up with. Maybe they will change some day.

on fox sports net. they carried the gncc races last year and they are planning on doing it again in 02. the coverage is great and it last 1 hour. they would rotate the quad races with the bikes. one week bikes, next week quads. look for it on there web page, gnccracing.com
by the way if anyone taped these races i'm looking for the mt.morris race and the iron man race.
thanks

I did see some wicked ATV (a banshee I think) crashes on TLC last night. Some Aussie was trying to jump a steam boat or something and damn near ripped his leg off when he crashed into it. Not sure what happened to the Banshee though.

Ace, That is the Kangaroo Kid! He is usually the only one that gets quads on TV until the gncc races came on fox sports net. I am going to write speedvision as well.
