Chris Burandt teams up with Chad Colby for Program |
|
Cross-country racer, Chris Burandt, and the United
Snowmobile Cross-Country Association announced the creation of a new post-race
program called "Track Side with Chad Colby," according to a USCC press release.
Colby's program, presented by Burandt's Backcountry
Adventure, was designed to provide an inside look into cross-country racing
that included video interviews from drivers, factory personnel and sponsors.
"Chad's
show is going to give our series sponsors and racers more exposure than they've
had in the past," said Pat Mach, USCC president.
Burandt, X-games gold medalist, teamed up with Arctic Cat
and other industry elites to provide riding experience through the Rocky Mountains.
According to the USCC's press release, "Track Side with Chad
Colby" was seen as the perfect escape for viewers who craved adventure.
Colby became involved with this project after helping out
with a radio program at the Red Lake I-500 when his sled developed problems.
"Over the past 5 years I have enjoyed racing cross-country;
that experience alone, and with my 30 years of snowmobile riding, should give
our racers, sponsors and fans a unique look into the sport we enjoy so much,"
Colby said.
USCC has provided live radio coverage of the events, and
Burandt's Backcountry Adventure's program would air every Wednesday after a
race.
