NASCAR Drivers: Non-Stop
NASCAR Drivers: Non-Stop is an hour-long television series airing on ESPN2 that profiles at least three different drivers during a particular Nextel Cup or Busch Series race weekend. The show coincides with the latter half of the NASCAR broadcast schedule. The show's first two seasons ran on FX Networks on Friday nights and was known as NASCAR Drivers: 360.
The series of episodes gives the viewer a behind-the-scenes view of what the drivers do between the different race weekends as well as how they perform in individual races. The first half of the episode would show the driver away from the track usually with family and friends, while the last half of the show usually details how each of the drivers perform in each of their race weekend events.
When the show was on FX Network the theme was composed by Niels Bye Nielsen. Since its move to ESPN2 the show has received a new theme and music, in a slightly faster paced style.
