New This Month on POWERtube TV
It’s been an exciting summer around POWERtube TV. We have several incredible new shows currently in production, and two brand-new series make their debut this month. You won’t want to miss either one!
OFF THE RAILS
Premieres Sunday, August 9
What happens when imagination has no limits?
Meet Don Abenante, owner of Retro Fabworks, where every build starts with one simple thought:
“I wonder if…”
From engineering and CAD design to fabrication and final assembly, Don and his team create one-of-a-kind hot rods and custom vehicles that have never existed before. Whether it’s building the world’s first all-wheel-drive 1959 El Camino, installing a modern Coyote engine in a classic Chevelle, or tackling their next wild idea, Off the Rails gives you a front-row seat to the creativity, craftsmanship, and determination required to turn impossible ideas into reality.
If you can dream it, someone has to build it.
RACE CENTRAL with Kurt Hansen
Premieres Mondays in August
Former professional race driver Kurt Hansen brings you the longest-running motorsports news program of its kind in North America.
Race Central with Kurt Hansen delivers complete racing coverage, expert analysis, and exclusive interviews with the people who make motorsports happen. From NASCAR and IndyCar to Formula 1 and everything in between, Kurt keeps you connected to the biggest stories from every corner of the racing world.
If it has wheels and goes fast, you’ll find it on Race Central.
See Us in Pigeon Forge This August
Just like you, the POWERtube TV team is always on the move. This August, we’ll be in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, for two of the area’s biggest automotive events:
• Bronco Stampede — August 14–15
• Great Smoky Mountain Jeep Invasion — August 20–22
The POWERtube TV team will be set up inside the LeConte Center during both events, so be sure to stop by our booth, meet the team, and pick up some POWERtube TV swag!
While you’re there, you can also enter our special onsite giveaway for a custom America 250-themed YETI Tundra 45 cooler valued at more than $400, along with a POWERtube TV swag package. It’s completely free to enter, but you must stop by our booth during the events to participate.
Also, keep an eye out for the POWERtube TV production team filming a brand-new episode of Car Culture Exposed throughout both events. If you see our cameras rolling, make sure you smile—you might appear on POWERtube TV!
We’ll see you in Pigeon Forge, and then we’ll all come together again at Offroad POWERfest on September 5–6.
Thank you for supporting POWERtube TV, Offroad POWERfest, and the incredible automotive community we’re all proud to be part of. We truly couldn’t do it without you.
Until next month…
Remember: You can’t have Speed without POWER!
