Plenty of selection this weekend, including some great replays and new shows. I guessed right on Speedmakers as they made episode two on Aston Martin's manufacturing facility. Also for those of you who enjoy Chasing Classic Cars, the HD special that pre-dated that series (Monterey Week) is airing on Saturday at 3pm. Oh and surprise-surprise, road racing is back this weekend with a live Grand-Am racing event in Florida. Options are a great thing.
