is it not still on Premier Sports? Sadly subscription only, £6.99 a month and there's nothing else besides NASCAR worth watching on it.
Yep sprint cup is live on Premier Sports. I think Sky sports run a highlights show during the week tooEdited by Crafty_ on Monday 26th March 21:44

Quite right, Premier Sports it is, I blame the unseasonably warm weather for my oversight.
True, can't believe how warm it's been today. I shouldn't be able to go out in shorts and t shirt in March, or in Scotland. Seems to be better weather that Stateside right now, screw it, they should put the NASCARS on a few British tracks (although I think 43 cars on Knockhill would mean 43rd would start in front of the start line!)DanB7290 said:

As im sat by a BBQ in France as I type, I'll put forward this suggestion... A Sprint Cup race on the full Le Mans circuit, preferably with no chicanes on the Mulsanne, and no restrictor plates. 500 miles. Imagine the bump draught ingrown the Mulsanne and then drifting through the Porsche Curves. I'm convinced it would be one of the greatest spectacles in racing.Nice idea, but they'd probably do about 3 laps before needing fuel
Martinsville! back to short track.
No nationwide this week but trucks are back.
Schedule: http://www.nascar.com/races/tune_in/
Jayski race info: http://www.jayski.com/news/races/2012/story/_/page...
Cup race green light will be 6:13pm UK Time.
Couple of interesting liveries this weekend, Harvick is running a Budweiser scheme celebrating the end of prohibition
The #43 will be back in STP colors:

Think they could probably manage 10 or so. An unrestricted cup car should do around 230mph, whether the Mulsanne without chicanes would be long enough for them to reach that is uncertain. The kink would surely be a challenge ...Crafty_ said:

Always fun, all the beating and banging that used to happen at Bristol has made its way there now 5 minutes to race start gents. Kahne on pole, Hamlin 3rd, Jr 14th, Stewart 15th. Full starting order here : http://www.jayski.com/stats/2012/pdfs/06mar2012lin...

Unbelievable finish..
Yep, although it would have been an entirely beliveable finish if not for the 10. Given the pit stops before the first GWC something was always going to happen on that restart.Think that's vague enough not to be spoiler-ish, the fact of a GWC on a 1/2 mile track shouldn't be a suprise to anyone.

So Biffle continues a decent season with a win last week.
We're in Kansas this week, Nationwide have a weekend off so just cup and trucks.
Watch for Piquet in trucks - he's gonna win a race sooner or later, maybe this weekend.
In Cup the STP livery for the #43 I posted a week or two ago is actually for this race (STP are race sponsor), my mistake.
