DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — NASCAR has expanded its regional racing television coverage to feature 28 events this year on Speed and nine events on Versus.

The expanded calendar includes 21 events from the NASCAR K&N Pro Series and seven races from the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour and NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour.

This comprehensive package includes airing of every race on the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East and West schedules. Three of the Whelen Modified Tour races will air as same-day televised events.

Speed’s NASCAR Developmental Series programming will air Thursdays at 6 p.m.

“Our NASCAR Developmental Series all have a strong and passionate fan base, and we saw the results in the viewership of last year’s events and in January for our postseason showcase, the NASCAR Toyota All-Star Showdown,” said George Silbermann, NASCAR managing director of racing operations. “Our fans spoke, and we listened. We are thrilled to be able to work with our television partners to provide extensive coverage of the talented drivers and tracks that help form the foundation of this sport.”

Speed, in conjunction with NASCAR Media Group, will air each tape-delayed race as a one-hour show. Speed will once again provide same-day coverage of the combination event between the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour and Whelen Southern Modified Tour at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway Aug. 18, as well as the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, N.H., Sept. 18 and the NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour finale at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, N.C., Oct. 14.

Speed’s coverage will begin with the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East opener at Greenville-Pickens (S.C.) Speedway (race date is March 27; air date is April 1) and conclude with the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West finale from Phoenix Int’l Raceway (race date is Nov. 11; air date is Nov. 18).

The schedule includes seven re-airs of previous events during select Thursday slots throughout the season for a total of 34 events.

In addition, NASCAR will expand its relationship with Versus to include coverage of the NASCAR developmental series. It will air an additional nine events from the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour and NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour.

For the fourth season, TSN will again provide season-long coverage of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series presented by Mobil 1. The Versus and TSN programming schedules are currently being finalized and details will be announced shortly.
