"For 18 years, it's been our honor and privilege to present motorsports and automotive-related programming to you on the network that began as Speedvision, became Speed Channel and is now known as Speed.

"From the visionaries who started this network, from maintenance to management, from the talent to the truck drivers, we've shared your passion for motorsports over lo these many years.

"We love that you care as much about your cars as family, God and country. And so do we.

"But now it's time to switch off the ignition and turn in the keys. This is the end of Speed in America.

"We hope you'll follow us on our new journey to Fox Sports 1 because all your favorite live NASCAR programming and much more is coming along with us.

"So now, it's goodnight and farewell to America's motorsports authority. Speed."

Curt Menefee, host of Fox NFL Sunday, then delivered the first words of Fox Sports 1:

"Good morning and welcome to the very first day of Fox Sports 1. Here on America's new sports network, our promise to you is that we will share your passion for the game, never take ourselves too seriously and most importantly, never put ourselves above the game nor the athletes.

"We will be informative without ever sacrificing accuracy. We work for you, the fan, and every day we will live up to this simple promise. Now let's get on with the show."
