The Traxxas TORC Series Presented by AMSOIL will invade American homes
this fall on the Discovery's HD Theater network. The series will air
every Thursday at 8 p.m. and 11 p.m. EST, meaning primetime series
coverage on both the east and west coasts. The new HD Theater Series,
"The Off Road Championship," will provide viewers with in-depth coverage
of the series' drivers with both on- and off-track action covered. The
racing is being captured on multiple high-performance RED digital cine
cameras, offering viewers an extraordinary viewing experience.
Additionally, a combination of on-track and in-truck GoPro cameras,
along with such innovations as the RC helicopter cam, provide a view of
the sport fans have never seen before.
“The Traxxas TORC Series Presented by AMSOIL is an incredible experience
live and Discovery HD Theater has captured that atmosphere for their
television audience,” said Kevin Miller, the CEO of USAC, the TORC
Series’ sanctioning body. “While nothing can top actually being there to
witness a TORC Series event, what HD Theater has done is the next
closest thing.”
The Sept. 2 world premiere episode, airing prior to the TORC Series’
finale in Crandon Labor Day weekend, details the Crandon Cup race from
the season opener at the "Big House," featuring the PRO 2 and PRO 4
drivers together in the classic shoot-out. A premiere party is being
planned for VIPs and competitors for the broadcast as teams arrive in
Crandon.
