NBC Sports to Premiere New Show MOTORCLUB

NBC Sports Network has greenlighted a new show that caters directly to car enthusiasts, action sports fanatics and motorsport followers, entitled MOTORCLUB. This program offers an unprecedented look into the behind-the-scenes of professional motorsport. Featuring a blend of professional athletes from skateboarding, BMX, motocross as well as dyed in the wool race car drivers, MOTORCLUB follows their journey through motorsport and showcases what got them into a career of going fast and racing.

The common theme is the crossover and blending of different aptitudes and skillsets and seeing how they can be applied into across the widest variety of racing types and challenges. From the promo, we can see Global Rallycross (GRC), Formula Drift, time attack and drone racing, among others. Should be an interesting mix.

The personal narrative, learning what makes these guys tick, MOTORCLUB showcases what it takes for top level athletes to win. The show premieres October 20 (10/20) at 8PM/11PM Eastern on NBC Sports
