For
president and founder Kenny Sargent, SpeedFreaks
came out of an all night vigil at the computer.
Frustrated by what he continued to see in motorsports
coverage, The Sarge decided to embark on a journey
that would take a year and a half to complete. After
tireless meetings, "maybes" and "let's
wait and sees," his bitchin' dream came alive.
SpeedFreaks began it's assault on the airwaves of
Los Angeles and the Internet June 25th, 2000. And
lets just say, the rest is his story.
Your right, it is now my story. So, as the Christmas
tree lands on green, allow me to ram my Puma through
the floor and tell it like it is. SpeedFreaks is
a lethal combination of motorsports commentary and
entertainment. To say this combo is lacking in today's
motorsports media coverage would be a colossal understatement.
The way we as fans look at motorsports has changed
as much as the sport's technology, speeds and technique.
Therefore, with this evolution, one would think
the entities covering motorsports would do the same.
No, and I won't even expound.
So, with this refusal to come of age, I, like a
lot of you, became bored to Texas Tears with what
I was witnessing. I wanted motorsports coverage
like the "F'n Outlaw" it is! From NASCAR's
Junior "Moonshine" Johnson outrunning
The Law to Andretti giving the finger to the F-1
elitists, to Import Drags Adam Saruwatari's world
record quarter-mile run to FMX's Seth Enslow and
his ass crushing record jump of 226 feet. Now those
boys exude 'tude in the sport!... |
