Do any of the folks here know of bars/diners/restaraunts in DC that show F1 races live? DC cablevision doesn't carry SpeedTV & my landlord doesn't let me get a dish - so I make my uncle mail me a copy of the race from Oregon. This means that I don't get to see the race until the Thursday/Friday after...and I have to work hard to avoid hearing the results! I've called a lot of places but they all are either not open when F1 races are taking place or they don't have any idea what I'm talking about. So I'd appreciate any tips & hangouts that other folks know about for watching races in DC. Thanks. Mark PS: I'd *love* a location in NW DC, but I'm willing to go to a restaraunt in NoVA or Maryland as well...

Don - That'd be great! I think that I'll be out of town for the USGP & I'll have a place to watch it, but I'd love to be able to arrange to grab the Japanese GP from you. (No, I'm not an axe murderer! That's the first time I've had that thrown my way on a newsgroup...) Would you just email me (remove 'i hate spam' from the header) so we could arrange a place to meet? Thank you very much.

I've been having nightmares trying to get Adelphia to fix my cable, so half the time I can't watch the races. If I could find a place that would show the events (I realize that they generally come on when it's illegal to serve alcohol, so that could pose a problem for some bars) around here, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks! Remove underscores (yep, even that "underscore") to reply by e-mail.
