The run-offs are this week/weekend, and SPEED TV issued the press release below about how important the run-offs are, etc., etc., etc......, yet we will see the T1 race on Sat. Nov. 26 at 2:00 eastern time(1 month after the fact), and the races stretch out through Dec. till Jan. 1. Seems their press release doesn't reflect the TV importance. They could have aired the races a some off hour times (like 2:00-5:00am) and we could all set our video recorders, - oh well.

****************
“There is no other event like the Runoffs in the world, and it is the only amateur motorsports event to garner this type of television coverage,” SCCA President and CEO Steve Johnson said. “We’re thrilled to again work with our television partner SPEED Channel to bring this unique event to the public, and promote the efforts of our top Club Racers.”
SPEED Channel, which began broadcasting the SCCA Runoffs when it launched in 1996, will air all 24 races in one-hour television shows beginning Saturday, Nov. 13th , running on weekend days through December. It marks the fourth-consecutive year that all 24 races will be aired on the network.

"This is the 'Super Bowl' of Club racing, and we take the SCCA Runoffs very seriously,” SPEED Channel Coordinating Producer David Lee said. “The shows are produced on par with our coverage of professional road racing, including interfaced timing and scoring, on-board cameras, and a crew of nearly one hundred people. Doing twenty-four races in three days is always a challenge, but we'll be ready."
