Keep your Friday nights free in June as the moment everyone in the Australian Off Road Racing community has been waiting for has finally arrived, with the exciting news that each round of the Australian Off Road Championship will be screened on OneHD, Network 10s dedicated sports channel.
The first of eight half hour episodes scheduled for 2009 season will premiere on One HD in less than a fortnight, sitting in the primetime slot of 7pm on Friday 19 June. Bringing all the high flying action into lounge rooms right across Australia with a 2009 AORC season preview.
A week later, Friday 26 June 7pm, we will be treated to event coverage of the ARB Pinjarra Engineering Hyden 450 held at Easter. Capturing all the tension and excitement of the eventful first round of the championship and blending it with stunning footage from both the ground and the air.
Complete coverage of the Tattersalls Finke Desert Race that is being held this weekend will be screened on Friday July 10, bringing all the colour of off road racing in the red centre to life in high definition.
With two replays on each episode before the next, the viewing audience will be massive. It is extremely exciting to finally get Australian Off Road Racing, and its teams, the recognition that is deserved, said Clayton Taylor.
Off Road Promotions spend so much time looking at these professional race teams present their immaculate race vehicles and crews, and to think that this may all go unnoticed was never an option. We are extremely proud to have the opportunity to present Off Road Racing to the country and the world. Off Road Promotions would also like to thank the teams involved in the AORC for giving us the product we have to work with he continued.
See below for the complete airing schedule of the first three episodes with dates for the following shows to be announced shortly.
Unfortunately, it is currently only available in the capital cities (Except Canberra - which is classed as a "regional centre" therefore we can't get it!)....
It will become available Nationally "in the coming months" (but Channel 10 have been saying that for months too...)
Unfortunately ONE HD will not be available in regional areas until the 1st of july. I have postponed the first episode as long as i could but unfortunately regional areas will miss out on the first two episodes but will be able to tune in on the Finke show. One way or another we will have the whole series available asap. So tune in and enjoy.....
