  • National Speed Sport News Returns - Sort Of

    Got this in a release today:

    National Speed Sport News to return: With an all-new monthly print publication launching in March and an aggressive plan for the future, Turn 3 Media, LLC, is bringing back the National Speed Sport News brand, identified for its namesake weekly newspaper that was widely recognized as the "Bible" of American auto racing news. Turn 3 Media, LLC, a North Carolina company founded by publishing veteran Curt Moon, former SPEED executive Joe Tripp, and motorsports television personality Ralph Sheheen, has acquired the exclusive rights to National Speed Sports News from The Kay Publishing Company. Founded in 1934 and edited by "The Dean of American Motorsports Journalism" Chris Economaki beginning in 1950, National Speed Sport News ceased publication of its venerable weekly newspaper following the March 23, 2011 issue. As Publisher, Sheheen will manage the editorial direction of the new SPEED SPORT Magazine and will help drive reach and brand awareness through his extensive television exposure. He will also lead efforts to expand the brand into video and television media. SPEED SPORT Magazine will debut with a March Season Preview issue, exactly one year after the original National Speed Sport News ceased publication.

    Having suscribed for almost 50 years and getting dumped 2 months after a renewal this is all a bit bittersweet. I have the highest regards for Ralph Shaheen as I know he is a racer at heart. I stood next to him at VCS during a sprint feature and he was just as intent as I was watching. Pardon me if I wait a few issues before I decide if I want to rejoin the flock. That being said I hope they do well and would like to see columnists like London and Argabright as contirbutors.
