SPEED shakes up coverage in 2008:

For the first time ever, NCTS fans will witness Truck Series racing in High Definition beginning with the Feb. 15 race at Daytona. NCTS Setup, hosted by Krista Voda, will return for its second season to bring fans up to speed before the green flag waves. A special version of the popular pre-race show will kick off the 2008 season prior to the Daytona race. Rick Allen will provide play-by-play with race analysis from Phil Parsons and Michael Waltrip. Adam Alexander and Ray Dunlap will cover pit road. Additionally, as in 2007, two NCTS races will be broadcast on FOX (Fontana, Martinsville), with the remainder of the events live and exclusive to SPEED. SPEED will air a Jan. 11 (7 p.m. ET) NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series test session recap from Daytona. John Roberts will host the special with analysis from Dunlap and Parsons. SPEED will broadcast 100 hours of Speedweeks coverage beginning with its HD debut Feb. 7, an all-time high over the previous 75 hours. Furthermore, for any fan who missed the live action on television. SPEEDtv.com will re-launch in widescreen format with several new features Feb. 6.(SPEED/tv.com)(1-9-2008)
