I did years ago, when we lost "Inside Drag Racing" to sindication, and you see what that got? One voice amongst millions, is ineffective and the results have shown since 2007. I love ESPN for college football, but when it comes to drag racing, they're showing us more and more that they don't love us like we think they do (kind of like the NHRA is with their high entry fees, and shrinking contingency postings...thus they're seemingly made for each other)! This is another reason I'm thankful I finally have an IHRA alternative to enjoy.

Watch out NHRA, IHRA's on the move and getting closer and closer to Glendora all of the time! Espn, you best watch out too, because Speed Channels growing too, and they care about more than just NASCAR like you guys do!!!!

stick & ball sports are realy all that ESPN 1 2 or 3 really care about----they for the most part have very little Motorports programming at all===

Precisely why I wish that "The Nashville Network" would've never relinquished control of NHRA drag racing years ago (or that ESPN wouldn't have embraced the falseness of ESPN being greater than TNN was), because TNN cared more for us, and they showed it with their coverage of our sport. I want Diamond P Sports back!!!

OK 442 ya got me on that one but howbout hi $$$$ poker--the point is they can figure ways to show everything but motorsports---do not know the reason but it must hafta do with ESPN mgmt dictating what activities are gonna be covered- NHRA seeked out ESPN and pays ESPN to televise their events!! ESPN did not go to NHRA and say how's about we pay you for the right to do NHRA racing---NHRA is paying to have our sport televised not the other way around

Dick,
You hit the nail on the head about showing everything but Motorsports.
With all the avaliable channels and air time seems like evertime I turn on the "Tube" (showing my age) There is some degenerate screaming at another in some"reality" situation or there is something about ??? wars. IE: Trucking, about storage of all types and in all places, killing of Gators, pawn Stars of all types and last but not least dancing and singing stars.
Talk agout filling time with....,to be nice, well just about anything.
What gives where are the Drag Race Wars or Drag Race Stars?

another sport that ESPN shows regularly is Ice Skating!!!!!! Ya know why???? It's the number one( #1) sport most watched by women!!!! Yep the ladies watch more figure skating than they watch any other sport on TV !!!! Bar none on that!!!

Coverage seems worse than ever on ESPN2.

Probably,in part,because of this:
