Yes, I guess Speed calling Texas HT a MC show is like Warner Bros. calling 
Daffy Duck a duck hunting show. Does Elmer chase him around with a gun? 
Yeah, but...
I guess Tx HT is a 'MC lifestyle' show? How about a 'MC lifestyle's show 
along the lines of Long Way Round. That I would watch. Does anyone know if 
MOTO WORLD is still on? I used to see it on ESPN2 but heard it was maybe on 
Turner or something. Haven't seen it in a while.

How about NECKCAR? That's my fav.
No disrespect intended. Dissing NAS**** is kinda a sport in and of itself.
