The series is co-produced by IMCA.tv broadcasting partners Riivet and the SPEED SPORT Network. 

“The IMCA Speedway Motors Super Nationals fueled by Casey’s is one of the biggest motorsports events in the world. Needless to say, it’s one of our biggest productions of the year,” said Riivet founder and SPEED SPORT Executive Director Chris Graner. “We pull out all the stops and we plan to leverage our full production team to make this documentary series as incredible as the event itself.” 

With unprecedented access and insider perspectives, “Boone” aims to capture the passion, intensity and community that drives the world of IMCA racing. The team has hired Dirt Collective founder and filmmaker Jeremy Cross to direct and edit the series. 

“The IMCA Speedway Motors Super Nationals fueled by Casey’s is a full week of non-stop excitement, drama, chaos, celebration, defeat, perseverance and glory. It’s an incredible event and a storyteller’s dream,” said Cross. “With the amazing team at IMCA.tv and SPEED SPORT Network behind the project, I couldn’t be more excited about what we’re set to produce.”
