The series will premiere at 11 PM EST Wednesday night (February 21st) on the SPEED channel. The live-action show is based in part on Microsoft's award winning video game called Forza Motorsport 2.

Each episode rigors a diverse group of competitors through a roster of competitive motorsports disciplines -- drag racing, road racing, autocross and drifting -- in a $100,000 winner-take-all format. Forza Motorsport Showdown is designed to be the ultimate test of high-performance driving and mechanical skills. Hi-Tech supplied engines for both the Chevrolet Camaro and the Dodge Challenger featured in this series.

"It's a very dynamic production encompassing an incredible amount of drama and suspense. Each team and personality has to excel in every one of these racing categories to be competitive; there's not much room for error.
