  1. It seems our local Dish does not show the NBCSN channel of Nascar races for us to see. also we do not even get the big Nascar race on Sunday usually on NBC so I have missed most of the races that have been on these channels. I am a senior citizen and have been a fan of Nascar since FireBall Roberts was popular, a very long time so I sure hate missing the races. Tks for listening to me rant.
