TV Nascar TV Coverage

**Craig** · 6 Feb 2005, 19:20 (Ref:1218912)

Is anyone carrying Nascar live this season in the UK?

I hope that it's not NASN as I can't afford their prices!!

According to the Motorstv forum, It's official that NASN will have live Nextel Cup for the next two years.

If NASN don't show it then I'm definatly going to cancel my subscription.

Is it worth it btracer? Because Im on the verge of getting it, as it's only £10.99 a month, which is good, also a one of payment.

BillyT · 6 Feb 2005, 19:46 (Ref:1218922)

If they secure the deal with NASCAR then yes. If not No.
The coverage is suberb, hardly any adverts and almost all live. You also get the Craftmans trucks which is brilliant aswell. Its worth the 9.99 a month just for the NASCAR coverage.

**Craig** · 6 Feb 2005, 20:41 (Ref:1218954)

I'd like to get it but I'm not splashing out £11.99 x 12 plus £5 setup fee

Luke might have all the money in the world but sadly I don't!

BillyT · 6 Feb 2005, 20:42 (Ref:1218956)

I go halfs with my Dad but it is quite expensive.

**Craig** · 6 Feb 2005, 21:01 (Ref:1218964)

I would certainly consider it at half the price but I was amazed how expensive it was!

I have enough to pay for a years subscription, but unfortunately I'm not able to get it as my parents said no.
OK when I move out one day then......You can all come round mine.

**Craig** · 6 Feb 2005, 22:51 (Ref:1219040)

I suspect, when you move out, you'll be in the same boat as me

It's only £10.99 a month, and you get something like 200 hours of Nextel Cup and Craftsman truck racing for that, with original US commentators and no adverts during the races.

It's well worth the money. Think of it as costing £2.65 per race - about the same price as one drink in the pub, or half a packet of cigarettes.

Certainly better value than paying Sky Sports £480 for a dozen IRL races.

**Craig** · 7 Feb 2005, 17:43 (Ref:1219632)

I'll consult the bank manager...

BillyT · 7 Feb 2005, 17:45 (Ref:1219633)

Agree definatly Sceptic. NASN has confirmed that they will be showing cup races and Craftsman truck races

JohnMiller · 7 Feb 2005, 17:50 (Ref:1219639)

How do you get it?
Only through Sky?
Or through Top-up TV?
Thanks

Rob29 · 7 Feb 2005, 18:14 (Ref:1219665)

AFAIK by satellite only. Channel 417 on the Sky EPG.or www.nasn.com
BTW;the £480pa for Sky is what I pay and includes the movie channels.From September we get A1GP in addition to IRL,otherwise I was concidering dropping the sports part.

sceptic · 7 Feb 2005, 18:45 (Ref:1219684)

NASN is also available via cable, but not on TUTV.

BillyT · 7 Feb 2005, 19:05 (Ref:1219691)

NASN is avaliable from telewest.I kept sky sports because of the football and motorsport

Sato san · 12 Feb 2005, 22:12 (Ref:1223948)

NASCAR LIVE ON NASN TONIGHT .

1am - 3am uk time ....Live Nascar Budweiser Shoot Out .

P.Cummins · 13 Feb 2005, 22:36 (Ref:1224672)

Well, I did my bit. Me and another chap down the road tried to influence Setanta Sports to go with NASCAR coverage...............and...............NO!

**Craig** · 20 Feb 2005, 10:30 (Ref:1230614)

Well, okay, I sold some DVDs on eBay and now I have signed up for NASN! So it best be worth it!!

sceptic · 20 Feb 2005, 11:57 (Ref:1230647)

You won't regret it.

I missed the Busch race yesterday, so have to watch the re-run this afternoon. That means from 2-11 there'll only be one hour when I'm not watching Nascar.

Respect to Sceptic !!!

BillyT · 22 Feb 2005, 21:00 (Ref:1232798)

Great coverage of the 500 asusual with NASN/FOX

neilwaynesmith · 2 Mar 2005, 07:36 (Ref:1239732)

The good thing about the NASN feed is that you also get the pre- and post-race shows too, also the in-car footage when the US take one of their many ad breaks (Although it isn't as good since Dale Jr switched crew chiefs, for some reason he's not as argumentative with this new one...).

BillyT · 2 Mar 2005, 18:43 (Ref:1240304)

Yeah defiantly agree about the coverage when the USA have advert breaks.
