This can serve as the weekly thread or not, depending on how strongly people feel about having the quote. Anyway, my on-screen TV Guide noted the start time for tonight’s race as 8:00 Central. It may be a built-in football delay or it may be an artefact from the time change, but either way check your own set-ups so you don’t miss watching or recording.

Probably a daylight to standard time change artifact. (Last year it took nearly a week for my DVR to switch to standard time in the fall!) My guide has it running at its usual time here. However, note that CBS is showing the late afternoon game this week so be sure to add in an hour extra recording time if you are trusting your machine to tape it for you.

Just checked listings for here – TV Guide says 8 PM Eastern, which is the usual time.
