tapesuptv 4 Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) The AMA National Speedway Championships return to Motors TV on Tuesday (7th June, 9:15pm), as a part of the USA National Speedway series broadcast weekly on the channel. The first of three AMA events, round one comes from the world famous Costa Mesa Speedway, the breeding ground of former World Champions Bruce Penhall, Sam Ermolenko, Billy Hamill and Greg Hancock. The 1997 World Champion Hancock returns to his childhood training ground in an attempt to regain his National crown, and in so doing aims to become the most successful rider in National Championship history, with a possible eighth title to be earned. But an all-star line-up including reigning and undisputed 2008 USA National Champion Billy Janniro, two time USA Under 21 Champion Ricky Wells, and 2008 podium finishers Bart Bast and Bryan Yarrow returns to stop him. Add into the equation former British League riders Flying Mike Faria, Charlie The Edge Venegas, Bobby Boogaloo Schwartz, Shawn Mad Dog McConnell and Gorgeous Gary Hicks, and these three rounds could just be the most difficult of Hancocks career. The meeting also represents an opportunity to see former USA Dream Team riders Kenny Ingalls, Jimmy Fishback, Eddie Castro and Tyson Burmeister in action on their native soil in a standard twenty heat format. But before all of that, the riders must qualify to even be there, with a brutal four race elimination programme set to destroy the dreams of some, and elevate others onto the national stage in front of 6,000 cheering fans. To enjoy all of the action, USA National Speedway in association with Motors TV have expanded the standard one hour format of the show, to bring you all 28 heats of action within a one-and-a-half hour programme. Series producer Alex Raby commented: USA National Speedway 2009 really is the next step up from our first series, and the three planned special one and a half hour shows will prove that. We are once again very excited to offer coverage of the AMA National Championships, with rounds from both Costa Mesa and Auburn, California, and in the round one show we will get to hear pre- and post-match interviews as well as seeing all 28 races, which simply would not have been possible within an hour. The third round at Auburn much later this season will be a part of a two week special that sees us visit the track for both the National Championship finale and for the USA vs The World, which was a very popular meeting last season. We have listened to our viewers who requested the opportunity to see a wider variety of circuits in the USA, and so, with our shows on the team scene in the country and by broadcasting the Victorville Championships, we have attempted to go that one step further. We have already enjoyed seeing the Victorville Vikings take on the Ridgecrest Aces at Perris Speedway, and what better finish could there be to a meeting than a last heat decider with the result decided on the very final two bends? It could not have been scripted better. But that hasnt been the only on the line result, with the first meeting of our series setting a trend for the year by being decided by an actual hairs breadth on a photo finish the racing really is that close. Gary Hicks just missed out in the Spring Classic, but a victory would have been wholly appropriate and representative of his successful comeback to be able to take victory some years after he last won would have been a special type of justice. But instead he recovered from disappointment to post victories in two further meetings: he is the man to beat at Costa Mesa in 2009, but what can the others do to match him? If Ermolenkos Costa Mesa return can be as inspiring, we are certainly looking at something special for the remainder of the season. The racing on the countrys tight circuits is so very close, and the tremendous level of passing thanks to the USAs unique brand of entertainers makes individual competitions a fest of overtaking. With riders like Hancock, Wells and Janniro returning for the AMA National Championships as well, we will be guaranteed excitement. We are indebted to Motors TV for their continued support, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of those who have worked across oceans to bring this series to fruition.

brandonbee48 1,194 Posted July 2, 2010 It is an unfortunate reality of life in the USA that my beloved sport, as far as TV is concerned, does not exist. The only coverage in the last year was on a High Definition channel called HD. Theatre which shows a mish-mash of proramming. I only came across it by chance one winter's afternoon with a promo for "F.I.M. Speedway Grand Prix-2009." It was a 1 hour version. But unless you have a Dish satellite package, with HD channels, you would never find it. So, for fanatics in the US, it is the internet streams or nothing. Any young American who comes over to Europe should be encouraged to the hilt. All he gets in the US is a wall of indifference. Greg may be the last of a dying breed. Sad. Alan Haycock.
