That's not a bad idea, although letting your wife watch Martha Stewart
or whatever she's into can be good for household harmony.
SV's got car stuff on most days, except a couple when it's boat
or plane stuff (yawn), and tuesdays which is motorcycles.
WRC is fun to watch.
They're showing a series of motorcycle speedway races recently, which
is pretty cool-- 4-rider heats on a 1/4 mile cinder oval on 70hp
methanol-burning bikes with no brakes. They also showed some SCCA
championships recently... I'd thought that things like 914-6s and
TR4s were relegated to vintage racing now, but there seems to
be some classes in SCCA that're stuck in 1971 where these
cars are competitive.
