BIO
Brandon Mudd is in his sixth year of hosting the SpeedZone. He started
on the show with Tony Hubert in 2003 as a co-host of what was then St.
Louis Motorsports Weekly and quickly became the producer of the show
as well, taking on the responsibilities of booking guests, providing stats
for the show, and writing and producing the show's imaging.

While on
the SpeedZone, Brandon started working with MB
Motorsports, the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series team
based in Foristell, Mo., that started the careers of such drivers as J
ustin
Allgaier
, Jamie McMurray, and Carl Edwards. Brandon spent 2004
travelling with the team, acting as the publicist for driver
Chris Wimmer.

In 2005, Brandon started getting work nationally, writing freelance
NASCAR stories for the Sporting News
, as well as working with PRN's Mark
Garrow. Brandon was soon extensively covering what was then the
NASCAR Busch Series as well as the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.
During this time, Brandon was getting more and more experience and
his name was becoming more well-known in the media centers and
garages at tracks all over the country.

A fateful meeting with Lenny Batycki at Nashville set the wheels in motion
for what would become Brandon's dream job. Batycki was at that time the
VP for Biagi-DenBeste Racing, but would leave there to take the reigns
at
Gateway International Raceway. A couple months later, Brandon and
Lenny met to discuss Brandon becoming one of the track announcers for
the NASCAR events at GIR. One thing led to another and Brandon was
hired. Not as an announcer, but as the PR director for the track.

With everything going Brandon's way, the final piece of the puzzle was his
return to
590 the Fan in 2008 after the SpeedZone went on  a one-year
hiatus. The show is stronger than ever
, airing each Saturday at 9 a.m. with
the best guests and commentary as well as a renewed focus on the local
racing scene in addition to the NASCAR/NHRA/open-wheel coverage you
expect from the SpeedZone.

In January of 2009, Brandon was recognized for his work on the
SpeedZone by the St. Louis Auto Racing Fan Club. He was awarded the
2008 Outstanding Media Award at the 42nd Annual Banquet of Champions.
Making the honor more special was the fact it was given to him by his
daughter, Cassidy.
