Hey Guys, I'm in Austin on business next week,any one in the area know of a bar/club that has Speed Channel? I want to watch the races from Daytona, especially the Formula Extreme as there are Buells entered.Any help is appreciated. |

Coyote the Buells aren't running Daytona.They will be back the next race at Fontana.It sucks but true.They haven't had enough time to test with some new parts to what I gather. |

What is the speed channel schedule for FX? I would just check, but I won't have SPEED until next week... Just in time for F1 though . |

Spooky I went to Hals Brag meeting last month and Kirk the owner told us this.Kirk told us that the only Buells that will be running in Formula Extreme are Hals and Kosco and they will not be ready in time.Heard it from the team owner him self. |

Coyote, Any of the local strip clubs (Penthouse, Yellow Rose, Expose', etc.) will have multiple tv's tuned to sports. 'Course they'll also have beautiful, mostly unclothed women wandering around trying to steal your attention away from the tv sets and I KNOW you wouldn't want that! You might try Ducati Austin ( http://www.ducatiaustin.com ) since they have an AMA Superbike team (Eric Bostrom) and will probably be watching, if you wanna hang around a bike shop. Tell Jeff (who used to be the Buell salesguy at Austin H-D/Buell) I told you to call him. There are also several sports bars around town (Rhinos and Jocks, Beveaux Joe's, Legends, etc.) as well as the ubiquitous Hooters and BoneDaddy's. Let me know which days you plan to watch; maybe I'll join you! I can also take you around to the various bike nights if you're interested...Here's the schedule I lifted from the Speed website for Daytona: Daytona Bike Week 2004 Superstock & Formula Xtreme Thu - Mar 4 3pm (LIVE) Supersport & Boxer Cup Sat - Mar 6 10:30am (LIVE) 2004 AMA Superbike Telecast Schedule Daytona 200 Sat - Mar 6 1:30pm (LIVE) HellBuelly J http://groups.yahoo.com/group/hellbuellies/ "There are only three sports: mountain climbing, bull fighting, and motor racing. All the rest are merely games." --Ernest HemingBuelly

Also included in Saturday's broadcast is the Short track. Just park yourself in front of a TV from 10:30 A.M. until the end of the 200 which should be around 4:30 or so. It's all motorcycles! |

Crusty, Thanks for the info. I will have to see which place is closest to the Airport, the hotel I'm at is near there. I think I'll check out the Ducati Austin Place. I am in town Monday thru Friday but fly back to PHX on Friday afternoons. I'll be at home Saturday recording on my new DVD Recorder |
