Anyone know if the NHRA HD telecasts use Dolby surround sound?

I'm a happy man... I ordered a 50" Panasonic HDTV and an Onkyo home theater system for our new abode (Well technically, my parents let me order the TV on their behalf. The HT system was my idea.) and I am getting DirecTV HD service installed.

The big question is: Does ESPN2 HD broadcast the races with Dolby surround sound? It would be awesome if they did. If not, at least I'll be able to use the subwoofer.

My Denon receiver always shows the digital 5.1 light on the HD channels, including ESPN2 HD and Speed HD ... nothing like fuel cars and the start of a F1 race to get the neighbors complaining!

I have cable though, not satellite.

Thanks! I'll post pics of my setup once I have everything put together.

I'm not sure, I think you may have a screw loose.
