About Catchfence:
Catchfence is an independent (has no major backing or sponsorship) deadline news media organization in stock auto racing, which is accredited and recognized by Bacon’s Media, BusinessWire/Newstream, PR Newswire, American Business Journals, NASCAR Media, CIA Stock Photo; as well as, the race teams, sanctioning bodies, and the race team/sport sponsors.
No other independent contains actual one-on-one interviews with drivers (active and non-active), team owners, and head on investigations (such as NASCAR and Safety – Humpy Bumper, Head and Neck Restraint manufacturers, as well as NASCAR and Jesse Jackson – Catchfence was the only independent to interview both Peter Flaherty of the National Legal and Policy Center, Project 21 and Jackson’s Rainbow/PUSH Coalition).
No other independent can lay claim of being associated with over 50 drivers from NASCAR’s Sprint Cup, Nationwide, Craftsman Truck and other NASCAR sansctioned series; as well as, the ARCA Series.
No other independent can lay claim to have or had over two dozen exclusive driver/team owner columns or articles; such as: Todd Bodine, Eric McClure, Clint Bowyer, David Stremme, Chase Montgomery, Ashton Lewis Jr., Lyndon Amick, Mike Harmon, Joey Clanton, Tammy Jo Kirk, Jennifer Jo Cobb, and Joe Falk (#91 Winston Cup car owner and our first driver/team owner column in 1999 – Little Joe’s Garage) to just name a few.
Catchfence is on it’s 9th season (as of March ‘09) of covering auto racing without sponsorship, so just imagine what Catchfence could accomplish with major backing.
