I don't know if anyone has posted this yet, but I just saw an ad for WRC starting October 4th! I didn't see on disco's site what type of coverage it will be, but I haven't looked at results in about 4 years so even if they play from the start of the season it'll all be new to me.
Quick search gave me this autoblog link from july http://www.autoblog.com/2009/07/16/discovery-channels-hd-theater-bringing-wrc-coverage-back-to-u-s/
October 4th is the rally of Spain, so I'll bet it's "live" coverage.
There are only two rallies left in the season, and the championship race is a tight one. Loeb (champion the last four years) had a bad run in the middle of the season and he's sitting 5 points behind Hirvonen. If Hirvonen can finish second while Loeb wins both remaining rallies, then Hirvonen wins the championship. You can bet both Latvala and Sordo are going to come in to play. It's going to be a couple of nail-biting weekends.
+1, except Loeb has won the Driver's Championship the last FIVE years.
Great news! I love rally racing and wasn't happy when Speed stopped showing it years ago. Funny, I was watching HD Theater 5 minutes ago, turned to my girlfriend and said "they should really put WRC on here."
allegedly, HD theater will play the entire 09 season. Will have the DVR programmed!

Yeah, but since I hit it exactly I get both showcases. 
I have HDT now!
I am so excited about watching WRC for the first time ever ever!
