This petition is intended to discourage FOX television from transforming the newly-purchased Speedvision network into an all-NASCAR channel. We understand the significant investment FOX has made in promoting stock car racing, but we do ask that changes made to the format of the network be made with a minimal amount of disruption to the other outstanding programming presently shown on the totally unique Speedvision network. Speedvision provides a crucial service to the motorsports community, being the only cable or broadcast TV network in America to provide in-depth coverage of Formula 1, vintage, motorcycle, sports car and endurance racing, as well as amateur and other lesser-known series and events such as FIA and SCCA rallies, Trans-Am, and the annual SCCA Valvoline Runoffs. This seasons flag-to-flag coverage of the Daytona, Sebring and LeMans endurance races was a rare blessing for racing fans. It would be a crime for this outstanding coverage to no longer be available to the growing motorsports community of this country. We ask FOX for caution, moderation and fairhandedness as they reformat this new addition to their fine news, sports and entertainment network.

    • There is already enough NASCAR Racing on TV. We need more Drag Racing Coverage. Not the Pros But the Stock and Super Stock cars!

    • I am an avid NHRA fan and have little to no interest in NASCAR. Please remember that there ARE fans who do not follow NASCAR but do watch SpeedVision

    • F1 has finally made an auspicious (re)start in the USA. I would hope that Fox will support the market for this unique motorsport and respect its US fanbase. Many thanks, DK.

    • Speedvision, in its current format, has a wide appeal. While NASCAR is certainly a popular series, its appeal is demographically limited. Formula 1, ALMS, Grand Am and AMA/FIA bike racing bring very different audience mixes to the broadcasts. I watch Speedvision daily; it is my default channel, the first one I surf to when I turn my set on. If I knew the program was limited to NASCAR, I would seldom, if ever, seek out Speedvision.

    • Speedvision's programming is excellent,.Do not inundate it with total NASCAR programming. NASCAR is a PART of the racing world, not the only racing world.

    • Speedvision as it is, is one of my favorite channels. To change it to a nascar only channel would cause my to not watch it any more. I have access to several of the fox channels and Nascar Racing already. To change the programming would be to change Speedvision into something else.
