Default Offshore Racing on Television

I live in the northeast and no one is televising any offshore powerboat racing on tv. I sent a e-mail to speedtv to see what gives and nothing. Could use some to get through the cold winter months.

I set my DVR to record Reggies show too. I see nothing on TV.. I check all the time.. Yeah what does give... It used to be more and more.. I "thought" we would start to see more too.

My cable doesn't even carry Reggies show. I think it is a conspiracy.

You're not missing much that "show" is mostly a Fountain commercial. Hopefully they will start showing some more real racing soon.

This season was awful, actually glad it was canceled. I couldn't stomach the last three shows. From what I understand, Reggie stopped funding the show early July. I was hoping to see some UIM races on Speed this fall, but nothing yet.

This is what you need......watch on your own schedule and without the hairpiece and gold chains.
