Wonder if Speed is interested in the ARRC (not that I'll ever get my *** out to RA)

We got another christmas present from SPEED if you didn't see it in the lounge.
JGTC will be broadcast on Speed, on Mondays starting in January. 12x30 minute tapes. I think they mentioned showing 3 at a time. And then they'll show replays on the weekends later on.

Old [Sch|F]ool
All I saw was CRAP. 
Didn't see any IT racing or E-Prod, which were what I really wanted to see. Did they even show ITA?
But i did stay up to get to see GT3, which was mostly FCs and FDs although there were a few RX-3s and some really ugly looking TOYotas. Ahh, the sweet sound of bridge port engines on national television
And before that, I was interested somewhat by D Sports Racer. Neat little cars. Then I saw the C Sports Racers. Basically the DSRs, but instead of using little motorcycle engines they used peripheral port 13Bs. Talk about an attention getter! I recall there was an incident with a questionable pass for the lead just as the yellow flag dropped, and then the guy in 2nd place decided he was NOT going to win on a technicality, he was going to be the first one across the finish line plain and simple, so he HEAVILY overdrove his car, caught up, took advantage of some traffic and passed on something like the 2nd to last lap, and won the race "for real". Unreal.
And then the Formula Mazdas, which was THE race to watch... some college kid from Wisconsin simply ran away with the lead and never looked back. I was literally SCARED watching the laps of the "on car" camera... this 19 year old (forgot his name, sorry) was taking insane chances, locking up his left front on EVERY braking down out of the chicane, skittering ***** to the wall grass to grass to grass... for 20 laps! I wish i could remember his name, but he won by a margin of something like 17.5 seconds.

Airflow is my life
IT is regional only, there is none at the runoffs. EP was on really late at night. I taped it. Glen Jung (1st gen) from here in CFR made it to third, then spun in the keyhole along with a miata from oil that was dropped by another SE-DIV driver (Don Ahrens 240Z) when his motor crapped out. Glen finished 6th or 7th. A 1st gen finished 3rd though!
