It has been brought to my attention that Speed Channel has no plans to cover the 2006 World Rally Championship (WRC) series. I am writing to express my dissatisfaction at this news. Surely, there is at least one NASCAR program which can be eliminated or cut short in the interest of providing your subscribers with REAL motorsport. This channel was once the greatest thing since sliced bread, but now it seems it is no longer interested in catering to the car guy so much as it is in cashing in on the redneck cash cow otherwise known as NASCAR.
There are fans out here in the real world of cars and motorsports, like me, who will still write in the hopes of seeing more true motorsport and less NASCAR garbage on Speed Channel, despite knowing that, since our comments don't align well with the new marketing plan of the channel, we will simply be brushed off with a form letter thanking us for our time, but we will write, regardless, and share our dissatisfaction with our peers.
In that case, a message for the bean counters: the more NASCAR is shown on Speed Channel, the more of your greatest advocates will be turning their back on you and walking away. Quit catering to the lowest common denominator.
Innovate. Lose the NASCAR. Promote REAL motorsports for REAL people.
Thank you,
Please go here and share your support of WRC. Thank you.
