I started off pissed and annoyed because of heat race "highlights" and 3000 commercials, but then they showed EVERY LAP of the best main event I have seen in a long long time....I say good job !!

I love seeing apologies, pit parties, and a blurry Travis Pastrana instead of a full heat race...

I thought the coverage was good. Watching the full main without commercial interuption was an appreciated touch.

The audio was horrible. The bikes were way too loud in comparison to the announcers voices.

Bravo to them for the commercial free final!!! Understanding that the commercials pay the bills, I personally had rather have them all early in the show and then a commercial free main.

In which case I can see your point. Even bad coverage is better than none, I suppose. I have SPEED so I guess I'm a little spoiled.

I agree about the commercial free main. That was great. I just wish they would show the entire heat races.

It wasn't going to be a commercial free main. They were cutting to commercials when JS went down and they thankfully kept it going. The TV coverage is a joke IMO. It took until the 30 minute mark of the broadcast to show any real racing. Thats why I DVR it so I can fast forward to the racing.

I Thought I herd music coming on as if they were going to a commercial as Stewart went down. Don't know if they had planned on going to a commercial and bailed.
