Thanks Bret. I've always wondered why Speed never covered all of the races for the OUSC competition as I thought it was right up their alley. So congratulations to MAV TV for showing the races. Hopefully it will inspire more to become involved and also help people understand how this hobby/sport improves driving skill, car safety, and just fun. It's the ultimate E-ticket where the lines aren't ridiculous (name your favorite amusement park that's large). I think that RideTech is a great match for the show as you offer various upgrades for a great many different cars that are affordable.

So thanks,
Rod

Actually, Speed did cover all the races at that time. Up until this year there was only the Las Vegas event and the Road America qualifier in 2012 and 2013. This is the first year for the 11 event schedule.

Also note [as most already know]...Speed no longer exists. It was bought by Fox Sports and turned into a general stick and ball sports channel. MAV and Velocity have been scurrying to pick up the motorsports end of Speed. That is why we've tried to make people aware of how [and why] they need to find and subscribe to MAV. Although some cable providers do not yet carry MAV, every inquiry gets them closer to providing these broadcasts. Call, call again, piss, bitch, moan, and threaten to cancel until you get what you want. You know...typical transaction with TV providers

On a specific note...MAV tells me that DISH sattellite will add MAV to any package for an extra $4.00 per month. It may not be listed on their website but if you call and ask [demand] it IS available. Other providers may have a similar deal. Asking is free.

I'm going to be gunning for a spot next year. Need to get some Ridetech bits underneath the truck, and someone who knows what they're doing inside of it for a change
