June 8, 2010 - The Robin Hood Rally Racing Series to Air on VERSUS - Amateur Racing Series Debuts Saturday October 2, 2010
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
JUNE 8, 2010
DERRY, N.H.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Producers of The Robin Hood Rally today announced that “The Robin Hood Rally" reality racing TV series will air on VERSUS, the fastest growing sports cable network in the country. This original race series in 10 cities kicked off in Berlin, NH last month with the next race scheduled for June 25th and 26th in Tuxedo, New York.
“We are thrilled that The Robin Hood Rally will air on VERSUS and are proud to be associated with such a prominent national sports network that is available in more than 75 million homes”
The Robin Hood Rally Reality TV series will air on VERSUS twice weekly beginning on Saturday, October 2, 2010 at 1:00 p.m. ET. Encore presentations will air on Mondays at 5 p.m. ET.
"We are thrilled that The Robin Hood Rally will air on VERSUS and are proud to be associated with such a prominent national sports network that is available in more than 75 million homes,” said Stephan Condodemetraky, President of The Robin Hood Rally.
“We look forward to airing the non-stop action that The Robin Hood Rally will offer viewers,” said Casey Stone, VERSUS Manager of Acquisitions.
Taping began in February 2010 during the driver interview and selection process and will continue through the last race in Louisiana in November.
Competitors spend two days racing Porsches, Ferraris, Corvettes, Lotuses and other exotics in each destination under the watchful eye of a camera crew, who record every move both in and out of the cars as the drivers compete for prizes in excess of $500,000, including a Ferrari F430, a Porsche 911, a Corvette Z51 convertible, among others.
About The Robin Hood Rally
Kicking off in May 2010, the Robin Hood Rally gathers 55 amateur racers as they spend two days completing timed runs on a designated Rally Course in 10 host cities spanning the American landscape. Representing a wide socio-economic mix limited only by their imagination and raw talent, racers compete for prizes including a Ferrari F430, a Porsche 911, a Corvette Z51 convertible and a set of steak knives. 100% of proceeds from ticket sales are donated back to host cities.
