I was just curious on what you guys do for your SP for NASCAR. How long to you record past the actual time of the race and stuff like this, thanks!

90 minutes. Rarely does a race go over that....

For the actual Season Pass..this comes up yearly and there's no perfect fix. I use a Wishlist for Nextel Cup with a Type:Live Event. This usually cuts it down to Qualifying, NC Race, NC Rewind on Speed. So even then I don't do Auto-Record but mainly select the race every week.

And yeah my pad is usually an hour or hour and a half.

I go 3 hours. True most races end close to on time but if your not home and there a rain delay or a red flag....on time goes right out the window.
I make sure there's no conflicts. And the time/space is not an issue for me.

I had a SP last year and it ALWAYS missed the Busch race. I finally figured out that the SP'es are channel specific. So this year I did a wishlist like PeteEMT however mine is for "nascar racing". I think it will work alot better and since I go through my "to do list" every other week or so I can manually delete the truck races the wishlist will want to record.

Just remember that if you want all three major series, can the SP and go with a Wishlist.

The last 5 years have treated me well with a 30 minute extention. This excludes rain delays which even the max 3 hours can't help in many cases.

With this setup will you get the bud shootout that's coming up in a couple weeks? My "Nascar Racing" wishlist caught it.

Just curious
