Press Release
Indianapolis, In.

The United States Auto Club announced today a new network television partnership which will air seven of the USAC National Sprint Car Championship races on MavTV in 2014. The production partner will be Jackslash Media, well known for their coverage of non-wing racing throughout the midwest.

"We are ecstatic to have our extreme racing product exposed to the motorsport centric audience of MavTV." said USAC race director Jason McCord. "Our AMSOIL National Sprint Car Championship puts some of the most aggressive racers into battle each week throughout the US. It's a great opportunity to showcase our sport to the masses of MavTV's growing racing audience.

In addition to highlighting some of Indiana’s best bullrings, the series will travel to the west coast in the Fall to capture the prestigious Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway in Perris, California. The series wraps up their season at the picturesque Canyon Speedway Park in Peoria, Arizona in November.

All shows will be produced by Jackslash Media Inc.

“This just seemed to be the right fit for everybody. USAC has been the proving grounds for the best talent in non-wing racing and we know the tracks, owners, drivers, sponsors, and fans can all benefit from this,” said Jackslash Media president Sean Buckley.

“MAVTV has provided us a stage to showcase our favorite sport and we cannot thank them enough,” Buckley added.

The USAC National Sprint Car Series TV production will start taping in late April and will start airing in June.

They need to show some silver crown races if they ever expect to get this series back to it`s hey days. This is too good and way too cool of a series not to be on TV at least a few shows. Just my 2 cent worth.
