2006 AMA Supercross on Aussie TV?

[ben s]

Does anyone know if Fox Sports (in Australia) will be showing the 2006 AMA Supercross series now that ESPN have sold it to Speed Channel?
I really don't want to miss seeing next year's racing, especially now that I've had a taste, seeing the Canadian rounds, of what's to come! Bubba looks like he's gonna clean up! It's really good to see that the green 450F is up to the task! I still can't believe they're on four strokes! It's a bummer that K Dub is out already, but hopefully everyone else will be able to stay injury free. It's gonna be an interesting year, no doubt.

Cheers,
Ben.

Just curious, did you watch the Can rounds on Speed? That's where the US rounds will be next year (06). Where in S. Au you at? I was over there last winter and met a guy near Cairns (Kuranga village) that rode MX and built minis for fun. It was a nice relief to shoot the breeze with him while my wife shopped, LOL.

Nah, the Canadian rounds were on ESPN. We don't have Speed Channel. We don't have OLN either, so we did a mass email onslaught to beg Fox Sports to show this years MX series. They showed it, so hopefully they'll show the SX too. The last round, Glen Helen was shown last Friday, the same day that the second Canadian SX round was on ESPN. Better late than never!

I'm in Paralowie, South Oz, a long way from Cairns.

If you are computer savvy there is always torrents of the races posted about a day after they are aired in the US. This is the method I've had to rely on in Canada the last few years since we don't get ESPN2 and OLN Canada didn't pickup the broadcasts.

I've heard of torrents, but I don't actually know what they are or how to use them. It's time for me to do some research! It sounds like a good idea if I could get something like that going.
