Motorcycle race fans are in
for a treat with Speed TV expected to show more than 30
hours of action from the AMA Superbike Championship, all
presented by Parts Unlimited.
The coverage on SPEED
launched with more than five hours of live AMA roadracing
from Daytona, including the 67th Daytona 200 by Honda, and
will continue through the final round of the series at Mazda
Raceway Laguna Seca in October. Each race weekend, SPEED
will air four hours of coverage, showing both Superbike
races (when scheduled), the AMA Pro Honda Oils Supersport
Championship presented by Shoei, and reports on the AMA
Formula Xtreme Championship and AMA Superstock Championship
presented by Dynojet.
Calling the action in the booth will be the experienced
broadcast team of three-time World Champion Freddie Spencer
and Ralph Sheheen, with Greg White reporting from the pits.
"If you can't be at the track, SPEED is the place to be on
race weekends," said Keith Kizer, AMA racing senior
director. "We're pleased to know that we'll be seeing
Superbike action on SPEED in 2008 and in years to come."
"We look forward to a great season of Superbike racing under
the final year of AMA stewardship and look forward to
working with the Daytona Motorsports Group through their
stewardship of American motorcycle racing next year and
beyond," said SPEED Senior VP of Production & Network
Operations Rick Miner.
