I hate this!!!
We don't get ABC in Canada. ABC usually gets routed through WKBW
Buffalo but their showing a telethon that began at 10pm last night and
runs till 7pm tonight. What a joke..
No tape delayed race either from what I can find. :(
I guess Nascar will never be a priority in Canada.
It's a sad day for Canadian Nascar fans.

If it's any consolation, I'm having to make do with audio coverage from
www.nascar.com here (Antwerp/Belgium) too.

Light rain at the moment.

>It was on TSN here in Toronto.

NO WAY!
According to their website they were not showing it and it wasnt
listed in the TV guide either. Although I did not check TSN during
race time.
Here's what the TV guide said:
 Curling - Brier
      Type:Team vs. Team / Curling
    Duration:3 hr
  Description:From Saskatoon.
      Airing:Sun 3/5/00 2:30pm TSN

Figures they show it even though they dont list it on either their
website or the tv guide. TSN blows*** anyway (scuse me :)

I checked the Toronto Sports Network during a commercial break on ABC. All
they had on was curling. They do sometimes show races late the night after
the race or a couple of days after. But if there's curling on or anything to
do with a Toronto team you can bet your last dollar that you won't see a
NASCAR race live.

Hehehe... you know (shaking my head)... for all those jokes about
Torontonians thinking they ARE Canada...

"Duh, cuz ya see Wilbur, there ain't no Canada outside uh suthern Untario."

Ah well. Here in the sticks (Vancouver), we got the race just fine. Of
course, shocked as you may be to hear it, we DON'T get our ABC from Buffalo.
Imagine that.

We don't have indoor toilets, of course. Got our fingers crossed that
they'll bring that in next year...

Im not from Toronto and i wasnt referring to all Canadians anyway. I
was just pissed off cause the race wasnt on in my area so i had to
fume. I just hate the 'canadian content' part of the Canadian
stations. if anyone is narrow minded it's the shitty canadian tv
stations that wont cover anything that doesnt include someone or
something canadian. Nascar is the largest spectator sport in america,
but yet TSN couldnt give 2 shits about it.

Sure their is. BC is a beautiful place.

duh go figure green thumb
