PR Newswire (US)
BOCA RATON, Fla., June 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Reality Racing,
Inc. (OTC Pink Sheets: RRGI) announced today that Reality Racing -
The Rookie Challenge will not air on June 23, 2007 due to SpikeTV's
prior commitment to air the UFC. Reality Racing will resume airing
on June 30, 2007 and is scheduled to continue uninterrupted on
consecutive Saturdays at 9:00am through its completion date of
August 19, 2007. Kathy Itchkow, Reality Racing, Inc., Director of
Marketing and Promotions said, "We were aware of SpikeTV's
commitment to airing the UFC from the very beginning of our
negotiations. Our email boxes and voice messages are overflowing
with positive feedback and we didn't want our loyal viewers to
think they would have to miss a single episode of our 13-week
series. "Here are just a few examples of the email Reality Racing
has received: A viewer who calls himself Srik wrote, 'I saw the
show on SpikeTV and liked it, Great work.' Another viewer, Mike H.,
wrote, 'Congratulation on the show ... I've been waiting for this
show for a little while, and I see that it has a LOT of potential;
the graphics and production are awesome...' Michelle wrote,
'whoever thought of this has a great mind.' Jake B. added his two
cents with, 'I saw your show today and it was pretty impressive for
a reality show. I'd heard about it from a friend and I'm into
racing and it seemed pretty cool, especially the driving and the
action and the animation stuff.' David B wanted us to know, 'Great
show last Saturday. I and my TIVO look forward to the next episode.
I can't wait to see what happens after all the contestants have
been selected. Looks like you all have a winner in the works, great
job by all.' Comments have also included very creative and useful
suggestions that have been incorporated into the show. We are a
publicly traded company so we are very sensitive to pleasing our
viewers as well as our shareholders." Ms. Itchkow also stated,
"It's amazing how quickly controversy can begin. Two booted
contestants, Mark Handwerker and Doctor Drake, who were told to
'hit the road' by the show's, Commissioner Lee F. Schaefer, have a
very large and vocal following. We are being swamped by viewers
asking that they be given a second chance in the form of a wild
card spot on later episodes. No decision has been released yet."
Reality Racing - The Rookie Challenge is part of SpikeTV's
high-revving Saturday morning "PowerBlock." Spike TV's telecast of
Reality Racing - The Rookie Challenge reaches the United States and
