They also want to cram 4 30 min moto's into an hour, somewhere theres a thing to email them and show that you want 2 hour coverage. I have to say that I think the broadcasting is going to suck bad. They covered Paris-Dakar this year and it was horrible. Got to see about 10 minutes of racing in a 1 hour show and it was way centered around the American racers.

I watched on espn 2 the beginning of the season, right when Bubba gets back into the series Golf and other lame sports took the Slot. Piss me off. OLN here in NY is channel 55 on Time Warner. I'll have to look for the races on OLN. If they expect to show the 125 and 250's in an hour I guess we'll be watching just the Mains.

there arent mains and heats in MX just two moto's and then your finishes are averaged. but yes either we only get two moto's or highlights from all of them.

I checked the schedule for both May and June and there are no MX races scheduled on OLN?????

Considering that the opening round was I believe last weekend then the race is usually broadcast a week or 2 later. Can anyone tell me where I can get some info on this?? THANKS!!!

Thanks Trikekid!! I'm actually watching it now thanks to you.... I went to the sight earlier and it didn't list sh!t for today so I don't know what the story is but at least I'm watching it. How on earth can MX and SX not have enough of a following that ESPN won't cover it?? And worse than that, when they do cover it they bump it for womens volleyball or hockey. I can't figure it out.

I was very impressed with the coverage too. Minimal commercials, and they ran the whole race not just highlights.
