SpeedWeek was an American television program on ESPN. For fourteen years, the weekly show aired multiple times in a week.[3][4] When SpeedWeek ended in 1997, it was the longest-running motorsports magazine show.[1] SpeedWeek covered multiple genres of motorsports, including stock cars, modifieds, sprint cars, midgets, and off-road racing.[5]
The show debuted in 1984 featuring Bob Jenkins and Larry Nuber. Nuber left the show in 1989. Jenkins remained as the show's sole host throughout the rest of its run.[1] SpeedWeeks' hosts described American motorsports events from the previous week and previewed upcoming events.[3] Jenkins received a 1990 nomination for an ACE (Award for Cable Excellence) Award in the "Sports Host" category.[6]
The program was produced in Indianapolis throughout nearly it entire run. For a period of time, it was taped at the studios of WXIN.[7]
The show ended in late 1997.[8] By that time, ESPN2 was broadcasting RPM 2Night.[8]
