Minneapolis, MN (4/11/2010)
- Long Haul Productions, in cooperation with MX
Sports Pro Racing, Inc. and the ATVPG, today announced
the launch of a new reality television series
about ATV racing called “ATV-24/7.”
Premiering May 15, 2010, each half-hour episode
of “ATV-24/7” follows three racers
– in real time -- as they prepare for and
race in the 2010 ITP Tires/Moose Racing AMA ATV
Motocross Championships.
Two-time Defending Champion Rockstar Makita Suzuki's
Dustin Wimmer, Motoworks Can-Am's John Natalie
Jr. and youth rider, Jordan Digby, will all share
the spotlight in this new reality racing show
that is being broadcast nationally on Direct TV,
Dish Network and regional sports networks throughout
the U.S.
“It’s sun up to sun-down coverage,”
notes Executive Producer, Carey Bohn. We are capturing
what it takes to compete on – and off—the
track … the gritty AND the glamorous side
of the sport … it’s a reality show
that is truly ATV racing 24/7.”
“ATV-24/7” will air as seven original
episodes, broadcast from May to the end of October,
according to the producers. Six rounds of the
ATV motocross championships will be included,
as well as one round of the ITP/BRP/CMR Championship
Mud Races. Supporting sponsors of
“ATV-24/7” include BRP/Can-Am ATVs,
ITP Tires and Wheels, and Amsoil, Inc. .
“We think ‘ATV-24/7’ will be
watched not only by racing enthusiasts, but also
reality TV viewers who, coincidentally, share
similar demographics with powersports owners,”
said Long Haul Productions president, John Daniels.
“ATV-24/7” can be viewed on Direct
TV on channel 344 (ICTV). On Dish Network, “ATV-24/7”
can be viewed on channels 230 (ICTV) and MAVtv.
The program will also air on America One Networks,
AMGTV Family Networks, Tuff TV Networks, Untamed
Sports Networks and other regional sport networks
to be determined. Airtimes and other viewing information
will be released in early May, 2010.
