I wouldn't know. I don't have PayTV. I don't watch enough TV as it is.

Whenever I'm at mum's I just find myself spending 30mins just flicking through the channels, finding nothing I want to watch. Unless of course it's the animation domination with Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, Futurama,.....

Yeah there are few good programmes on Turbo Max, and Turbo Max +2!!!!

Hats off to Pay TV for adding new channels!!!

Apologies for being ignorant but is this on Foxtel?

EDIT: Never mind. LOL

Oh, on Cable it is Channel 122

 

[Kitty's VR4]

Foxtel & Austar Irwin, isn't 122 on cable - Discovery Turbo, I think that Discovery TURBO Max is completely different programming

i love the new turbo max, but living in a house with 3 women who don't like cars means i don't get to watch it very often. i wonder how much they will charge for the new channels after the free viewing is over????

Talking about TV and stuff..

Top Gear Season 14 Episode 1 is online and Episode 2 should be coming out in the next couple of days

 

[minik1971]

I think the new channels are good and have watched quite a bit of Turbo MAX, I have just finished setting up my HTPC too and with all the channels giving me an online guide into my HTPC I can record anything I miss during the day when I am at work and record it during the wee hours of the night when no one is watching other channels

Program on TurboMax to watch during the next week.....
High Octane Detonate

Its programmed for replay each day till Monday, really worth a watch for any petrol head !!
check your local guides for times.

Extract from spiel in the guide below.

In Detonate, performance car enthusiast, Ketzal Sterling embarks on an epic journey around the globe. Starting in Norway and eventually visiting Germany, Denmark, the United Kingdom and Australia - he is in search of the world's most extreme road cars and will put them to the test. From 500kph Top Fuel drag cars to 750hp tire tearing Corollas, Ketzal takes you on a journey deep into the cult of extreme underground performance car modifying. We even give ski-mobile drag racing a go. Will these crazy Scandinavians never learn? Detonate features 320kmh speed runs on the autobahn with Tommy, the crazy Norwegian with a pumped up, angry Supra that is dying to eat away at any BMW, Mercedes or Porsche that GETS IN ITS WAY! Watch as Tommy tries to better a Hayabusa on the no limits, no holds barred, German AUTOBAHN! Where speed limits are scared, the police are slow, cars are MAD and the drivers MADDER!

I wish I have PayTV, don't have budget for that and it all goes to the car hahaha

i remember watching High Octane 5 years ago, got them all on dvd. its actually quite entertaining because he mocks ricers.

 

[fieldy107]

I watch a fair bit of Turbo Max, its good but I get sick of how many bike shows are on it and sometimes there is some shitty shows that arent about cars or bikes. I also get sick of that guy who builds replicas.

Other then that its quite good and Ill be keeping an eye out for that high octane detonate.
