The 3pm slot was Auto Racing "IRL" continued (1:30pm to 4:30pm).

:-(

So now I'm watching MNF (ABC coverage of football) and they run a promo for the IRL noted below at 3pm ET/noon PT. That may mean the TV guide is wrong and I CAN watch the Monza GP!

weird, my listings are fine, if you have 'speedtv' you can still catch the practice/qualifying, and if your despereate, drive down to San Diego, and you can watch the GP on a 50 inch TV sitting in my living room. btw-our time, the race will air at 3 pm not 1pm, so you've looked up the wrong time slot.

hope this helps,

Thanks Hubert!

Well I checked my local listings (again) and realized they haven't updated their sunday listings from yesterday (doh!), so I checked TVguide.com and found this in that time slot:

----------------------------------------
Auto Racing
IRL in Fort Worth 180 min. The IRL season comes to a close with the Chevy 500, taped today at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth.

Date Time Channel
Sunday, 15 1:30 PM 7 KGO (my local ABC)
----------------------------------------

So I'm quickly back to square one, any ideas? And yes I checked all the other outlets w/tvguide.com and still haven't found the "main event", but thanks for your help Hubert!

I mean the actual race (or replay - at least withing 24 hours of the race), not practice or qualifying. I checked SPEED-TV, ESPN, ABC Sports, can't find any coverage (in the USA) other then pre-race stuff, or a replay on Speed a week later.

HELP!?!?!? ANYONE? where should I be looking & when?
