STAR GAZING: How to watch the ASA STARS National Tour and the “Sunshine  State 200” on March 11th 

Special from ASA STARS National Tour – Race fans who want to see the inaugural ASA STARS National Tour Sunshine State 200 event on  Saturday, March 11 will have several options to catch the action.  

Of course, fans can witness history by attending the event at Five Flags Speedway in person. Tickets to  the Sunshine State 200 are available for purchase on-line at https://bit.ly/ASA5FlagsTixs or at the track box office during regular business hours.  

For those who cannot attend, the event will be live-streamed on a trio of digital platforms via Pay-Per View: The newly formed TrackTV.com; Racing America and MidwestTour.tv.  

“We’re excited to announce a unique distribution package,” stated Bob Sargent, president of Track  Enterprises, which owns and operates the ASA STARS National Tour. “We’ve aligned with three great  media partners to allow fans of pavement super late model racing unprecedented opportunities to  watch the sport.” 

TrackTV.com is being launched as an enhanced version of MidwestTour.TV offering additional  programming and a more diverse lineup of motorsports including pavement, dirt, off-road and more..  TrackTV.com is being billed as the newest platform in the streaming space. Current MidwestTour.TV  subscribers will have full access to TrackTV.com programming. 

Subscribers to TrackTV.com, MidwestTour.tv and Racing America have the option to purchase the  single event Pay-Per-View at the discounted price of $22.99. Non-subscribers can purchase the  broadcast for $29.99. There will also be a discounted PPV bundle option that includes nine of the 10  ASA Stars National Tour races (does not include North Wilkesboro on May 16, which was previously  contracted by and will be available on FloRacing). 

Fans interested in following the entire season throughout the year can purchase this discounted bundle  for $99.99 if they are Racing America or MidwestTour.tv subscribers, or $139.99 for non-subscribers.  

In addition to the live-streaming options, fans can watch all 10 events on a tape-delayed basis on  MAVTV. 

The multi-platform distribution package is unique, due to the unification of the three regional tours — each of which already have contractual obligations. 

“Putting our broadcast schedule together this first year was quite challenging,” Sargent continued. “We  have existing relationships with the three streaming entities through the ASA/CRA Super Series, the  ASA Midwest Tour and the ASA Southern Super Series, plus a number of our host race tracks have  independent relationships with one or more of the three. It’s been a challenge, but we are excited with  the outcome.”

While the MAVTV telecasts will provide network television coverage of the new ASA STARS National  Tour, live-streaming services have continued to refine the way race fans consume the sport.  

“Racing America is proud to partner with the new ASA STARS Tour and to bring coverage of this series  to our fans across the country,” noted Colin Smith, president of Racing America. “We knew we wanted  to be involved with Bob and the STARS team from the day the announcement of the new series was  made and we are excited about helping shine a brighter light on these races. We will have a strong  editorial and social presence at each event as well and are looking forward to working with all the  partners to help make year one a success.” 

“The ASA STARS Tour is a unique opportunity for media partners to join forces and enhance the racing  fan’s overall entertainment experience,” said Chris Graner, Executive Director of SPEED SPORT TV.  “With a rich history of over three decades, the ASA has always held a special place in the hearts of  racing fans, thanks to unforgettable races, emerging talents, and top-notch broadcasts. As we embark  on this rejuvenation with ASA Stars, we’re committed to delivering the same level of energy and  excitement to the racing fans.” 

The ASA STARS National Tour will open the 10-race, six-state schedule at Five Flags Speedway in  Pensacola, Fla., on Saturday, March 11 with live coverage from our streaming partners. MAVTV will air  the event on Monday, March 20 at 8 p.m. ET.
