> Saturday afternoons just got a little more exciting with the start of SCCA Pro Racing SIRIUS Satellite Radio Mazda MX-5 Cup Presented by Hankook programming on SPEED.

> All eight rounds of the inaugural season will be broadcast Saturday afternoons in December, starting this Saturday, Dec. 9, with Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca and Lime Rock Park at 4:00 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. (EDT).

Watched both races today, pretty interesting racing since it is all spec and **a lot** of over driving.

DVRed them today, watching now 🙂

**EDIT: talk about exciting racing at Mosport! Some notes:**

- someone forgot to tell the drivers that three wide at the end of the Andretti straight is usually not a good idea. I’m surprised they made it work more than once. :ohnoes:

- someone forgot to tell the drivers that bonsai pass moves on the OUTSIDE going into Turn 2 are usually a bad idea. I’m surprised that one guy saved it.

- 

_Seriously, some of those drivers clank when they walk…_

Both the races today were much less exciting than the first two. (i.e. no crashes, but some good driving at the front)

I am thinking about buying the entire SCCA runoff collection, just because SPEED sucks so bad and it’s cheaper than a DVR.

If I could figure out how to get them all off my DVR box, I’d copy them for you

They’re probably downloadable off bitTorrent. Burn to DVD and call it a day.
