Here's my problem, you have to go out of you way to watch any motorsports beside INDY and NASCAR in the US. I used to have SPEED channel when I was in the bay area, but now its not included in any packages in my current area. I was able to get a stream of F1 today and will hopefully keep op with it as it is the best racing in the world. Rally is just like you said, and I do hope we get some drivers beyond Ken Block doing Rally-X and making that the next big thing.

One thing I miss personally is D1 events in the US. Formula D just doesn't cut it for me, though I haven't been in a few years after just being utterly confused by some judging decisions (seems like it was lets get the big name/crowd fav in).

One thing I loved but is prob cost prohibitive was GT Live back in 2006 when JGTC (now Super GT) came to California Speedway. That was an amazing experience with the type of pit access there is. That was an amazing weekend combined with the D1 event. Based on your post there is nothing like that kind of GT racing that is in the US.

Would anyone happen to have links or ideas on where to view Super GT and D1 events online?
