Speed Channel plans to launch a weekly show devoted solely to NASCAR's Chase For The Nextel Cup, Street & Smith's SportsBusiness Journal reports.
The 10-week series, tentatively titled "The Chase Is On," is scheduled to air from 8 to 8:30 p.m. (Eastern) Thursdays from Sept. 15 through Nov. 17.
Ralph Sheehen will be the host, and the network is looking for a Nextel Cup driver to work with him on a show that is expected to be similar to the NFL Network's "NFL Playbook."
