"Start Your Engines: Speed Greenlights 'Fast Track to Fame' and im your host!"
The show is set to begin on March 1st. With a 10-week run. Featuring Michael and his co-host Charissa Thompson. Judges wills be Riki Rachtman, Kathy L. Carter, and one guest judge each week from the NASCAR scene (i.e. drivers, crew chiefs, owners).
My first thought was that it would be a competition between all the drivers and crew cheifs to see who had hidden talents, (I still think that should be pitched to networks!) but alas the show will feature contestants from different NASCAR towns.
Fast Track to Fame's website says it is looking for singers, dancers, comedians, variety & novelty acts. With auditions in Dallas, Birmingham, and Phoenix.
Now don't get me wrong Im glad Mikey has found something to do in his spare time and and he is quite the comedian himself. But really? Does the sport need this type of publicity? It comes across a little desperate to me (I will have to watch to be proven wrong) but I just don't see how this could be considered helpful.
When the rest of the sporting world looks down on racing, or NASCAR specifically, as a bunch of hicks watching cars go round (shame on you world!!!!!!!!) how would it react to one of us winning a talent competition. But who knows!!!!
I included the link to the website for your own personal browsing! LoL!
