HOT LAP is designed to appeal to all motorsport and travel enthusiasts. Season one is being billed as ‘Canada to California’; season two is ‘L.A. to London’ season three is ‘Germany to Japan’. HOT LAP is designed to emulate characteristics of other highly successful shows in the motorsport genre such as “The Long Way Around” and “BBC’s Top Gear”. We recognize Europe as one of 3 primary markets for this show, so we’ve included a large segment of the UK’s best tracks – to be featured in season two.

Outline of the Season Story Arc Each 13 episode season is comprised of one episode of behind the scenes trip planning, followed by 10 track day episodes, a special feature episode, and grand championship finale episode. Played in sequence, each season is arranged as a continuous motorsports travel documentary spanning 10 different tracks plus 3 feature episodes with 100 random challengers per season. Outline of the Multi-Season Story Arc To maximize the shows appeal and distribution potential, our strategy is to engage the major motorsports market in three distinct geographic territories - USA, Canada and Europe. We have identified the most mentioned tracks in motorsports journalism throughout each of these key territories and have designed our next two seasons to feature these particular tracks. Our third season will focus on Asia Pacific. At the end of three seasons, we plan to summarize the series with the release of a thematic documentary "HOT LAP Around the World" as a feature length film. -30-
