Hi gang.
I've been checking out channel 10 to see when they will be showing the WSBK in the following week but can't find anything.
I was chatting to this guy at the weekend and he said that 10 has been having finacial problems and wont be showing them anymore.
So if this is correct, we are all stuck on watching it on foxtel, if we have it, or not at all
(
I was looking around the isohunt.com site to see if anyone has released a capture, but nothing so far and last year was not good either.
If anyone can help in this area I would really appreciate as well as all the other people here who like to watch, not just read the results..
cheers
Martin

WSBK hasn't been on free to air TV since the end of the 2002 season

Aren't Ten still televising the MotoGP rounds?
I know Nine are showing the ASC delayed by a couple of weeks...

That would be illegal..........
more importantly I dont have a video capture card that works with my digital topbox

I think TEN have had money problems and have pulled the coverage of it.
As for capturing... well I wouldn't know about that cause I live in outer space and dont know these kind of laws
But if someone did, for testing purposes I'm sure that would be appreciated by a load of people.

One of the guys at work is paying a $35 annual fee to some motorcycle website which gives you all the races. I'll try and remember to ask him which one...

think i found out that the site is worldsbk.tv
only thing is, australia gets just about jack!
Small reads, no video on demand and no live feeds! Why the hell should we even bother. Sounds like a rip off to me and i recall seeing some of the video clips before, the quality is pants.
