Forsythe Racing on History Channel
From the ChampCar homepage:
Quote:
During the Bridgestone Grand Prix of Monterrey at the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, Monterrey California the History Channel spent time with Paul Tracy and the Forsythe Championship Racing team filming the defending 2003 Series Champion for the prime time television series 'Tactical to Practical'.

The show will air on Tuesday November 30th at 1PM and 7PM Eastern, Noon and 6PM Central, 11AM and 5PM Mountain time - and separately on the West Coast on the same day at 1PM and 7PM Pacific time.
The Canadian version of the "History Channel" is different than the American, therefore I doubt it very much if we will get to see the program.

We have the History Channel in the UK.

But I don't know if it's the same as your versions.

The Canadian version of History Channel does feature the show "Tactical to Practical", but I can find no mention of this particular episode...

A new, related article on the CC website tells that the episode(s) are not just featuring Forsythe:
Quote:
Host Hunter Ellis interviews the drivers, owners, and engineers from various Champ Car teams including Newman/Haas Racing, RuSPORT, PKV Racing, and Forsythe Championship Racing, as well as Champ Car Executive Vice President of Operations, John Lopes to explain the vital role that aerodynamics plays in racing and winning in the Champ Car World Series.

Filmed at Laguna Seca in September, Tuesday's episode is the first of two Tactical To Practical shows to highlight Champ Car racing. The second episode, featuring g-force, can be seen on Monday, December 13 at 11 p.m.ET as the show examines the new designs that keep race car drivers from blacking out during extreme g-force acceleration.

I fired off an e-mail to History Television asking if and when we might see this episode in Canada. I'll post their reply if I get one.

I think it might be on this Sunday. Reading the episode 12 description there is a "need for speed" reference.

Canada never puts the racing episodes on. I will get my cousin to tape it for me.
