ESPN Dish Tech Center
ESPN takes over coverage of the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series this weekend at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Part of that coverage will include the ESPN Dish Tech Center, what Norby Williamson, ESPN executive vice president, studio and remote production, calls a unique and significant element of the network's NASCAR coverage.
The tech center will include cut away Chevy Cup cars and the Cars of Tomorrow. The traveling studio will also have room for other race car elements such as engines, transmissions and shock absorbers.
"We will now present segments within the telecasts that originate from a specially-designed environment with no exterior interference, allowing us to add to the viewing experience and give NASCAR fans even more information," Williamson said.
ESPN broadcaster Tim Brewer, a two-time Cup championship winning crew chief, and other ESPN analysts will report from the tech center during race telecasts through the rest of the season.
"Dish Network is thrilled to partner with ESPN to provide NASCAR fans with one of the most cutting-edge and educational race viewing experiences ever developed," said Carl Vogel, president of Dish Network. "The ESPN Dish Tech Center is a strong complement to our sponsorship of Roush Racing and the Team Dish All-Stars, including Matt Kenseth, Greg Biffle, Jamie McMurray and Busch points leader Carl Edwards."
