For 14 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]

History
The show debuted in 1983 featuring Bob Jenkins and Larry Nuber. Nuber left the show in 1989 and left Jenkins as the sole host. Jenkins remained as the show's host throughout its run.[1] SpeedWeeks' hosts described American motorsports events from the previous week and previewed upcoming events.[3] Jenkins was received a 1990 nomination for an ACE (Award for Cable Excellence) Award in the "Sports Host" category.[6] The show ended in late 1997.[7] By that time, ESPN2 had been broadcasting RPM 2Night.[7]
