NASCAR and TNT

[Jimbo]

Well, here we go again ....
Nascar will be on TNT for a few races starting after this race.
I know the NFL is not using ST bandwidth, are we expecting any problems with TNT and the HD and the Race all co existing ???

Was this only a ST / TNT bandwidth issue ?

I think for some reason I thought that TNT would not be shown in HD for the Nascar races, not sure why, I might have to ask for forgiveness as I am currently on pain killers for my screwed up knee.

I wonder if TNT's coverage will be any better, or if it will just be the cobbled remains of the NBC setup from previous years. Benny will be missed, but looking forward to Kyle Petty...I think he will be good in the booth.

(and no more "pull those belts tight one more time...boogity, boogity, boogity" until next year!!! Geez, guys...get a new act for 08!)

Kyle Petty? Is he retiring from racing?

No, he isnt retiring yet. He's just stepping out of the 45 car to do the 6 TNT races. After that, he will finish the season in the car.

I dont think he's announced anything about next year.
