“It’s my privilege to announce ‘Lost Speedways’ is back for a second season on Peacock,” said host and executive producer, Dale Earnhardt. Jr.
He added: “The fan response from season 1 was too overwhelming to stop. Our goal for season 2 was to broaden our footprint. We did that with trips into New England, Texas, West Virginia and Florida. This new run of episodes features amazing tracks, incredible stories and legendary racers. My Dirty Mo Media crew did an outstanding job capturing the essence of these old speedways, and I had a blast exploring them.”
All episodes of Lost Speedways season 1 are currently streaming on Peacock with season 2 dropping this summer.
Created and hosted by Dale Earnhardt Jr. (Dale Jr. Download), this series is an exploratory look at great racing cathedrals of the past.
