Already seen one on the road and two at a local dealership. I'm in southeast lower Michigan.

Oops, that was supposed to be in the Alfa post. I fail.

Christmas is canceled now, Joe.

I was waiting to start watching at 12:30 EST as your original post stated, arrrgh.
"If you want to catch Foust and the rest of the drivers in action this weekend, Freecaster.tv will begin airing the RoC live at 5:30 GMT (12:30 PM EST, 9:30 AM PST) this Sunday."
Hopefully the full replay will be available.

I caught it starting with Lewis Hamilton, was there anything really cool that I missed in the pre-race action?
Brett MacPherson 11:52AM (12/14/2008)
I just caught it as well, adn now I'm watching the stunt drivers on motorcycles. I think they're replaying it right now because on the sidelines you can see Lewis Hamilton's F1 car and beside it they're laying down that white panel that he does burnouts on. Does anyone know for sure?

It looks like the Hamilton coverage I was watching earlier was live and the announcers mentioned the team competition starting in 45 minutes. That would put it at the 12;30 est mentioned in the original post. Schumi and Vettel won something with the Kbow cars it seems. The panels are replaced as the event goes along I think for other drivers to sign like Hamilton did.

The stuff that was on when I tuned in earlier was the Nations Cup competition. 5:30 GMT is when the individual competition kicks off. Also, I'm adding the embed code as we speak.

Thanks Alex,
I would have liked to see the Nations Cup part of it, congrats to Germany it looks like (Schumi & Vettel, nice pairing). How did the US team do btw?
Alex Nunez 12:24PM (12/14/2008)
Dave, I missed the US team. All I caught was the last match-up between Schumi and Ekström in the Germany vs. Scandanavia final. I love this format. Very exciting and watchable, except when the camera lingers too long on close-ups as the announcer is going berserk over how close it is -- let me see how close it is then, please.

At times like these I realize how much Speed TV sucks donkey balls. I'd PAY for a channel with 24/7 Race of Champions, F1, WRC, 24hr Le Mans. Petite Le Mans, MotoGP, TopGear etc.. or to put it the other way, a channel with no Nascar, Pinks, SuperBikes and Two Guys Garage.

Speed is a disaster now. It's like HGTV with NASCAR.
Tony K 12:26PM (12/14/2008)
You mean Speed before Fox bought them and screwed up everything? Yeah... I'd pay real money to have that back as well.
why not the LS2LS7? 12:33PM (12/14/2008)
Race of Champions is only 3 hours of content a year.

I wish the Stig would be invited to rep the UK

You never know, maybe he has already :-)

Some say...
The A-Train 1:11PM (12/14/2008)
OMG the announcer said that Ben Collins is the Stig and that he could not make it because he is busy. Some person asked why the master of the universe, The Stig, is not there and he said that Ben Collins is busy. I know he was a contender and everyone kind of knows he is the Stig but still holy crap.

Maybe it's time for the white stig to "die" too then
