TNT Sports enters its second year of NASCAR coverage with a new NEP mobile unit, PX1, debuting in Sonoma. The ST-2110-based truck serves as the production frontend, supported by SuperShooter 12, and the production will feature super-slo-mo cameras, drones, and SMT data integrations. The expanded in-car experience on HBO Max includes driver-radio isolation and multiview enhancements.
TNT's move to a purpose-built ST-2110 truck signals that IP-based mobile production is now standard for large-scale motorsports compounds, not a proof-of-concept. The dual-use in-car feeds — serving both HBO Max subscribers and the linear cut as replay sources — show how DTC-tier production assets are increasingly shared infrastructure rather than separate pipelines. Watch whether TNT's upgraded viewing experience, combined with its elimination of full-screen green-flag commercials, moves the needle on cable viewership relative to FS1's struggles this season.
NEP's PX1 truck represents the company's latest investment in IP-based mobile production for U.S. sports. The unit is built on NEP's TFC broadcast control system, a platform the company has been rolling out across its Americas fleet to standardize ST-2110 workflows in mobile environments. The TFC system gives production teams centralized control over routing, signal management, and monitoring within an IP-native architecture, reducing the need for traditional baseband patching in the compound.
TNT Sports' five-race In-Season Challenge package sits within a broader NASCAR media-rights structure that now splits the season across four partners. TNT takes over the mid-season window from Amazon Prime Video, with all races streaming on HBO Max and airing linearly on TNT, while practice and qualifying sessions land on truTV and HBO Max. The bracket-style tournament format, won by Ty Gibbs in 2025, gives TNT a contained five-week window to demonstrate production quality and audience growth before handing coverage to the next rights holder. The deal structure means TNT's technical investments must deliver measurable results within a compressed timeframe.
From a production-technology standpoint, TNT's deployment of 40 cameras including eight super-slo-mo units and a Phantom robotic camera at the finish line places its NASCAR compound among the most camera-dense in motorsports broadcasting. Sports Business Journal reported that TNT will also expand drone usage to three of the five events and deliver all races in 1080p HD, with additional replay angles and fresh NASCAR content added to HBO Max. The combination of ST-2110 infrastructure, high-frame-rate specialty cameras, and IP-based drone feeds tests whether a single mobile unit can manage the signal density required for simultaneous linear and DTC output without separate production chains.
