is NASCAR still being shown on Open Access in the UK??? it's gone from the TV listings- and not scheduled for any point this evening........

[Maccoll]

I'm worried, not appeared on Open access (Sky channel 190) and as you say no longer listed which seems weird.

I remember this happening before but it was listed and the race came
on eventually. Getting annoyed but what can we do about it?

I'm on justin tv stream which is a big compromise, almost unwatchable.

johnathangregorio (http://www.justin.tv/johnathangregorio#/w/553904768) feed on justintv seems to be fine and really good stream.
shame about 190, it got removed from the schedule somethime this afternoon as it was there earlier

[Maccoll]

Thanks for that but I seem to have to put it on a smoother setting that makes it really grainy. Is there better software/free download for helping with these streams? I've got a Toshiba satellite laptop running windows 7.

[djparky]

can't even get that working. and I'm not spending 4 hours in front of the computer anyway, so if it's not on proper TV I just won't bother with it anymore.

there's something on Digital Spy forum- something has gone wrong at OA- trying to get it on another channel for next week. I don't understand why ESPN pick this up over here- they show loads of other US sports except this one- they even show (or did show) NASCAR Now

hmm, I like this, kinda like the F1 season, while all the eyes were on Webber and Alonso, Vettel stole the show and won the WDC.

I'm hoping for a repeat from Harvick and takes his well-deserved title that should be his away from Hamlin

[eastlmark]

so what happened to open access coverage? Dont say they have left us in the lurch for the final 2 races.
Just watched the Pheonix "highlights" on sky....... doesnt give us any idea of how bad or good the race was (usual stuff, showing green flags without giving us any idea why there was a yellow anyway and an outside the care centre interview with Brad yet we have no idea why he was in there), final laps exciting though. Shame Harvick didnt pip the 48 on the last lap.
