SPEED Channel, based in Charlotte, NC, was launched on New Year's Day 1996, by Roger Werner, as SpeedVision. The network is shown in the United States and Canada. The network is primarily devoted to things that have four (or two) wheels, a motor, and move fast. Occasionally, the motor is optional. Programming on the network includes live Formula One racing, NASCAR-related shows, how-to programming, antique car shows, less-popular racing series, a weekly news show, call-in shows, and even reality shows. Bobsledding, luge, and skeleton events are shown during the winter months. The network is also the exclusive United States broadcaster of the 24 Hours of Daytona, 24 Hours of Le Mans, and formerly the Dakar Rally until losing the rights to that event to OLN for 2005. Beginning in 2007, SPEED will be the exclusive home to the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series' All-Star race, the Nextel All-Star Challenge, and the NASCAR season opener, the Budweiser Shootout. NZ League.

In the summer of 2001, Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation purchased one-third of Speedvision. In August 2001, they negotiated to acquire the stake of the channel owned by Comcast, thus giving them majority ownership. The plan was to reintroduce the channel in 2002 as a 24-hour NASCAR network. This plan was ultimately shelved in the fall due to lack of quality NASCAR programming the network could attain at the time.

On Monday February 11, 2002 at 7:59 p. m. ET, SpeedVision relaunched as SPEED Channel. The first program of the new format was a special launch show and 2002 NASCAR preview focusing on Speedweeks 2002. Other Stuff.
