I thought it was a way better than usual for the sportsman show.

Well, i got to see stock eliminator atleast. My dvr stopped recording right when Super Stock was coming up, thanks to a prior program running about 15 minutes into the nhra slot...:(:mad::eek: From what i saw on stock it was decent coverage. :)

Any way of getting this coverage up on Youtube? I'm dying to see ESPN coverage, since I live in Sweden. :(

Coverage was great. Just like to see less TAD and TAFC and more stock and super stock. Oh, by the way, where was comp.?

Darn it - I read this about an hour too late! We just watched the show this evening (We set all drag racing to tivo an extra hour at the end just because the shows get pushed back so often). We could have taped it to post on Youtube but it's been deleted. Sorry . . .

Nice shot of Jeff Niceswanger launching after the first commercial break - they even pronounced Jeff's name right! They showed eliminations from all classes but no interviews with anyone but TAD & TAFC winners. You could really see both Lund and Iaconno dumping at the top end as they showed the races in slow motion as well. Good coverage again, not as good as Brainerd (it was nice to see interviews with the winners, not just their cars) but better than it has been in the past.

No Hemi shootout coverage this year, The last one Ive seen was when Jeg was driving Harry's
car, What is it because there were no Pro's in the show. That kinda sucks! am I missing something here?
other than that S/SS finals were cool different overhead shot was used great camera angle.
CLASS FINALS IS WHAT I WANT TO SEE ON TV!!!!!

What really gets me on those slomo shots is what the front suspension does when they land - WOW

I see, but could you perhaps tape the next event covered on ESPN? As I said, I'm dying to see coverage of the sportsman classes over here, and I would be more than grateful if you or someone else could post coverage on Youtube! :)

Will ESPN allow it to stay since it is copyrighted?

Well, they haven't removed the coverage that is up already. From what I've been told, as long as you can clearly see the channel's logo it's ok.

I thought they did a decent job. At least the the Finals got some t.v. time. They showed Comp at the end after T/AD & TA/FC and even interviewed David Rampy after his win.
