Rally America Gets "Down and Dirty"





Parker, AZ - Jim Beaver and Rally America are proud to announce that they have joined forces to launch “Rally America Radio.” 

Rally America Radio will be broadcasting live with Jim Beaver stage-side throughout each of the eight 2015 Rally America National Championship events.
“I’m very excited to be working with Rally America this season,” stated Jim Beaver.  “They put on some amazing rallies and the series and drivers are a huge part of the Down & Dirty Radio Show.  I’ve driven rally cars, and I have an immense amount of respect for the drivers competing at the national level. Rally is such a challenging motorsport to both compete in and to cover live, but I think fans in North America and around the world will be very excited with the coverage, interviews, and recaps we bring from the stages of the biggest stage rally events in America during 2015 with Rally America Radio.”


Jim Beaver, a widely know professional off-road racer, motorsports commentator and host of the world’s largest action motorsports radio show “The Down & Dirty Radio Show,” will be bringing an extensive network of online partners and outlets used by the Down & Dirty Radio Show to distribute Rally America Radio.  In addition to hosting Rally America Radio, Jim Beaver will also work with Rally America in various capacities during each of the events.
“Jim and I have been discussing the opportunity to work together for about a year and I couldn’t be more excited to have it all come together," said Bill Fogg, Sr., President of Rally America, Inc.  "Rally America Radio will deliver scores, news and interviews with Rally competitors, sponsors and fans like no other media method can deliver in a live format at remote Rally locations.”

“After three full seasons of Rally and various media experiments, I think our 2013 season model was our most successful in getting event coverage out to the fans.  Rally America is going back to that model along with a few new media product ideas and distribution partners for 2015.  We need to get back to delivering current event content, not delayed.  The overwhelming feedback we have received is driving this decision.”


Rally America Radio powered by the Down & Dirty Radio Show will make its debut January 30th at Sno*Drift Rally in Atlanta, Michigan, with continuing coverage on day two, January 31st.  Tune In times and links will be available at www.rally-america.com and www.DownAndDirtyshow.com as well as their corresponding social media in the coming days.
