Kurt Hansen Wins Two Bronze Telly Awards as Host of

Rotax Max Karting Event TV Broadcast

Race Central TV & Radio host helps bring prestigious television achievement awards to Denver-based Altitude Sports & Entertainment network

Denver, CO – July,30th 2008 – The winners of the prestigious 29th Annual Telly Awards were recently announced, and the list of outstanding film and video productions included a motorsports event broadcast that was hosted by Kurt Hansen, host of Race Central TV and Race Central Radio.

 

The 2007 Rotax Max Grand Nationals karting event, which took place at The Track in Centennial, Colo. last August, and was broadcast on Altitude Sports & Entertainment, has been awarded two Bronze Telly Awards for outstanding achievement in the Sports and Live Events categories. The announcement marked the most recent of many honors for Hansen, who has been consistently recognized as not only the Rocky Mountain region’s premier motorsports authority and broadcast personality but one of the nation’s finest radio, television and announcing talents.

 

The Annual Telly Awards honor the very best local, regional and cable television commercials, programs and segments. Awards are divided into two major categories: Film and video production, and commercials. Altitude Sports & Entertainment won a total of six Telly Awards, but the Rotax Max Grand Nationals event was the only individual production to receive more than one award.

 

“I’m overwhelmed and extremely grateful to receive these honors,” said Race Central Host Hansen. “The 2007 Rotax Max Grand Nationals race was a great event and I really do have to thank Jim Keesling, owner of The Track in Centennial, for giving me the opportunity to be part of his event. I was thrilled to be a part of the broadcast production, and I’d also like to thank everyone associated with the Telly Awards, as well as Shelly Harper, Wright Hugus, Al Boileau and their incredible on site production and broadcast team and everyone at Altitude Sports & Entertainment, who made this possible.”
