It's not DirecTV's fault..it's ESPN.ESPN does the programming,DirecTV is just the carrier.

Hate to say it, but The X-Games are more entertaining than NHRA. My Son's & I watched a bunch of it. Can't blame ESPN either. Ratings rule programming.

They were on ESPN2 I believe, 11 to 1:30 am or some ungodly hour like that on the East Coast. Was flipping thru the channels late last nite and they were on from Sonoma.

Now you guys have me wondering what is on my DVR. I will be a little upset if it is bikes and skateboards.


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

No you won't. The race on the enduro course is well worth your time to watch. It is brutal. When the chicks race it is a little more that they bargined for. Watch for the girl that goes over the side of the log jump head first.

As P body said,it was on 45 minutes late on Direct tv. I watched the x games and then fell asleep watching nhra about halfway through first round. The x games were more fun to watch.

On a related note: Paul Page is bad enough, but who in their right mind decided that Twit Blazemore would be a good pit reporter?? He SUCKS, big time.

Steve Evans, drag racing misses you more than you know...

The girls enduro race was very entertaining ! They did have a difficult time. When they showed the overhead view you could see riders down all over the track.

Was funny... right at the end of the women race they
show the winner cross the finish line and off to the
side you could see a lady rider laying in the water/mud
hazard... and I do mean laying... I believe the only
lady rider that didnt fall was the winner

At first I was pissed about the late start, but after watching the female riders, I was in a much better mood
