This unscripted reality TV production launches at the North American International Motorcycle SUPERSHOW in January 2012.

    “We are very excited to be working with the SUPERSHOW on the launch of HOT LAP,” says HOT LAP producer and host Andrew Shaw. “There is no better venue to premiere our exciting new TV production than at North America’s largest motorcycle show! Visitors can also join us at the HOT LAP booth throughout the three-day event and apply in-person to be selected as a challenger during season one.”

    In each episode of HOT LAP, the challenger with the fastest lap will win a ticket to the main event at Laguna Seca, California, where ten finalists will compete for the title of season champion and a chance to win a bike and to join the show as a cast member.
