NASCAR HotPass Lineup

Via Jayski, the DirecTV HotPass Channel line up for today’s running of the Coca-Cola 600 from Lowe’s Motor Speedway in Charlotte:

#17 Matt Kenseth, 795
#20 Tony Stewart, 796
#48 Jimmie Johnson, 797
#01 Mark Martin, 798

And at DirecTV’s HotPass site, you can sign up for half-price for the remainder of the season, if you’re so inclined.

NASCAR HotPass Lineup

I had incorrectly assumed that there would be no HotPass coverage for tonight’s running of The Nextel All-Star Challenge1 from Lowe’s Motor Speedway in Charlotte. But a quick check of the Tivo TV Guide reveals the following:

  • 795 – Kurt Busch (#2)
  • 796 – Kevin Harvick (#29)
  • 797 – Tony Stewart (#20)
  • 798 – Jimmie Johnson (#48)
  • 799 – Dale Earnhardt Jr (#8)2

Let’s see: no points awarded, a million bucks on the line, night racing on the ragged edge, and 5 of the sport’s best on HotPass.

I think I’ll take it in.

#26-Jamie McMurray, 796
#20-Tony Stewart, 797

H/T: Jayski, a living legend in NASCAR news. Cutting and pasting beats transposing stuff from the DirecTV guide.

NASCAR HotPass Lineup

Not even an Arkansas Sabbatical will deter me from posting the HotPass Lineup for tonight’s running of Crown Royal Presents The Jim Stewart 400 from Richmond International Raceway. This race also has the distinction of winning the Faulkernesque Naming Award for the first half of the season.

#31-Jeff Burton, 795
#24-Jeff Gordon, 796 (fan choice)
#11-Denny Hamlin, 797
#99-Carl Edwards, 798
#8-Dale Earnhardt Jr, 799

Car number, driver, and channel are indicated above, in a slightly different format than before. H/T: Jayski for the lineups.

My brother-in-law doesn’t have DirecTV, so we’ll be watching the event on Fox Sports. Hmm, and today is Derby Day, too. Better check the beverage supply.

NASCAR HotPass Lineup

The HotPass driver channels for this week’s running of the Aaron’s 499 from Talladega shakes out like this:

  1. 795 – Jeff Gordon (#24)
  2. 796 – Tony Stewart (#20)
  3. 797 – Kevin Harvick (#29)
  4. 798 – David Stremme (#40)
  5. 799 – Dale Earnhardt Jr (#8)

Three members of my Fantasy Race team are in there; looks like the remote’s channel changer will take a beating. And Dale Jr should change his car number to 799, it looks like. Speaking of Fantasy Racin’, I must head over there and replace one of my sluggard drivers who failed to qualify. The race gets underway about three hours from now; I wonder how much Lynyrd Skynyrd music I’ll hear between now and then? My guess is lots; glad I like the band.

NASCAR HotPass Lineup

As they race off into the sunset tonight in the running of the Subway Fresh Fit 500 from Phoenix, the HotPass featured drivers, and their channels are:

  1. 795 – Ryan Newman (#12)
  2. 796 – Dale Jarrett (#44)
  3. 797 – Reed Sorenson (#41)
  4. 798 – Carl Edwards (#99)
  5. 799 – Dale Earnhardt (#8)

It’s nice to see some new faces in the lineup – Newman and Sorenson are making their first appearance. As far as Junior goes, he’s a fixture on channel 799.

Clint from Kansas, and is on my fantasy race team. Channel 799 is all-Earnhardt-all-the-time for sure.

1 Is it just me, or is 799 becoming the Earnhardt Channel?

NASCAR HotPass Lineup

Driver channels on DirecTV’s NASCAR HotPass for the running of today’s Food City 500 from Bristol Motor Speedway1 shake out like this:

  • 795 – Elliot Sadler (#19)
  • 796 – Kevin Harvick (#29)
  • 797 – Jeff Gordon (#24)
  • 798 – Kurt Busch (#2)
  • 799 – Dale Earnhardt Jr (#8)

The green flies at 2:30 EDT. I’ve gotta find a replacement driver for Mark Martin, who is sitting this one out. I hope this doesn’t portend a plummeting in my Fantasy Racing standings. I’ve already demonstrated I can rapidly go from the penthouse to the outhouse in basketball handicapping.

1 Today celebrating its 50th consecutive Nextel Cup Series sell-out.

NASCAR HotPass Channel Lineup

DirecTV’s NASCAR HotPass driver channels for today’s running of the Kobalt Tools 500 from Hot-Lanta Motor Speedway look like this:

  • 795 – Mark Martin (#01)
  • 796 – Tony Stewart (#20)
  • 797 – Greg Biffle (#16)
  • 798 – Jimmie Johnson (#48)
  • 799 – Dale Earnhardt Jr (#8)
  • Between the racin’ and College Hoops, I expect the remote control will get quite a workout today.
