Wind Tunnel w/Dave Despain?

One of my favorite racing commentators is Dave Despain, host of Wind Tunnel on SPEED TV. Anyone else watch it? Like it , or no?

He's on right now interviewing Paul Gentilozzi....one of the partners trying to buy CART.

I love this show. Anyway what your watching are reruns from the summer/fall. They are just re showing the interviews. I believe the new season starts sometime in the spring. They are a little Nascar biased, but thats a network thing and thats where all the $$$$ is. My favorite is when he started to bitch about callers. I believe someone posted a video of it on this site. Funny stuff.

Red: Gentilozzi just dancing around the whole thing. Coincidentally enough, I checked the latest stock quote of CART (symbol:mph) and it is no longer listed on the exchange.

Dirtrider: They mentioned that the next telecast will be January 26th.

Hard to get away from Nascar being in Charlotte, NC.

John Force has alot of energy doesn't he?

Dave is an old friend from my motorcycle days, and a great reporter on all automotive/motorcycle events and topics. And in his day, a pretty fair rider!

I enjoy his show. In fact, I spend a lot of time watching Speed.

Motorsports are pretty dead in winter--I can't wait for things to fire up again, like Sebring.
