Whats Up With Ten????

I am wondering if it is just Western Australia that is getting coverage of only 2 races instead of 3? On the weekend they should highlights of race one. The highlights took up less time then that of all there chit chat. Do all you guys on the eastern sea board get full coverage of all the raceing?????????

No, I think everyone gets the same edited coverage of the 3 races IIRC, they do the same thing with Hidden Valley's 1st race.

Same here in NSW.
Bet they don't do the same with the AFL, Don't show the first quarter.

They did it with Eastern Creek as well - only showed a highlights package of the twilight race.

What's the point of running the extra Saturday race if you're not gonna televise it ?

I also don't like the way the Konica series races are only a highlights package now as well - I can't believe nobody from the Konica ranks has squawked about this yet.

Yeah, i was absolutely fuming when WA race 1 was just a very short highlights package!

Also, i'm with Buck, why aren't the Konica races shown in full, far more interesting than most of the other stuff on Trackside. I'm sure the sponsors aren't happy if their time is being snipped.

Why couldn't they just give it same day coverage, gotta be better than the triathlon or whatever they put on on non-V8 race weekends

the other categories on Trackside deserve their TV time.

The thing with Trackside is that Ch10 are charging the classes some incredible fees, and the classes know what they are in for when they sign up. If they don't like it, they don't have to be shown on TV at all...

Not only have they got to play alot of money, but also the quality of what they pay for isn't all that great, and they try to fit too much into the length of the programs, especially now that most of them only go for 1.5hrs, not 2.
