Hi Mark
Hey, I kinda liked "Planes of Fame". I have noticed that the rally
coverage I've seen always seems to be the Rally of Sweden, over and
over again. How about SCCA or CARS? I haven't seen any of it yet. Oh
wait, Powerboat Television just came on.

I don't have anything against NASCAR, I'll probably end up watching
many of their races, especially the road races. Roundy'round is great
to see in person, but pretty boring on TV, all IMHO of course.
I guess the real problems many people have is why should one series of
racing dominate so much of what was once a fairly well balanced
program.
