Versus Becomes NBC Sports Network Today
RacerTV joins
the NBC Sports line-up in 2012
Morgantown, W. Va. (January 2, 2012) - Racer
Productions is pleased to announce today's
launch of NBC Sports Network, formally Versus
Network, as the official place to watch RacerTV
's coverage of the Can-Am Grand National Cross
Country Series, the AMA ATV Motocross National
Championship Series and the Red Bull AMA Amateur
National Motocross Championship presented by
Amsoil.
Versus makes the name change to NBC Sports
Network today at 4 p.m. EST with the airing of
the NHL Winter Classic. Furthermore, NBC Sports
Network will keep a steady stream of live sports
on air in 2012, including the National Hockey
League (NHL), Major League Soccer (MLS) and the
summer Olympics in London.
"I think the addition of RacerTV on NBC
Sports Network is huge for our sport," said
RacerTV Producer, Jason Hooper. "To have ATV and
motorcycle races air on the same network as NHL
and the Olympics will bring in more viewers
outside of the sport and hopefully turn them
into fans!"
RacerTV features weekly powersports programs,
airing Sunday evenings at 5:30 p.m on NBC Sports
Network. The complete 2012 RacerTV schedule will
be released soon and all times are subject to
change.
