    We have been advised that the more positive feedback they receive on the screening, increases the possibility of featuring more motorcycling on TV. We encourage you to phone 0800 759 759 or e-mail sky@skytv.co.nz positive feedback on the programming of the above events.
    As the note says - positive feedback means its more likely they'll show more racing. So those of you who have SKY - get in touch!

    Those of us who don't - it might be worth asking is it's going to make it to Prime.

    Any news on the aussie sbk series being shown. I enjoyed it last year.

    This looks to be replays of whats already been shown on TV One. Why no coverage of the other rounds? I think the Aussie SBK stuff was shown on Prime.

    Because they were the only rounds that were paid to be televised
