Not necessarily jumping in to defend B-J, but the message above seems ill-directed. It's Speed that should be getting the heat. B-J doesn't control the coverage and what makes it tv, Speed does. Then again, I've alway found Speed TV coverage to pretty much suck in general. There are better car programs on Discovery, Learning Channel, and BBC television.

Should probably add, I don't really care one way or the other about the relative bidding (or lack thereof) on the GTOs.... I just want to see them covered as well as the other pieces at the auction. I'd really prefer they just run the auction straight with no commercials.
You make a good point. But it just seems like every time a nice Pontiac is heading to the block they cut to break. Maybe B J should have the shows recorded then air them so you can see every car.

Also what car shows are on BBC? I might have to check them out.
