    #1 - This is Home

    S1:E1

    This Is Home, gives you, the viewer, an in-depth perspective of 15-year professional Supercross and motocross racer, Andrew Short, and his family. A colorado native, Andrew, and his wife, Jacki, moved to Smithville, TX in 2005. Throughout much of Andrew's professional career, he has lived under the shadows of being so close to winning races and championships, yet, from an outsiders perspective, he simply doesn't have the mental capabilities to execute and reach his goal of the top step of the podium.

    #3 - Phoenix Rising

    S1:E3

    For those familiar with the traditional route to becoming a professional Supercross and motocross athlete, you are familiar with the same old narrative. Drop out of school, chase the amateur circuit, win the biggest amateur national in the world, Loretta Lynn's, get a factory ride, make money (hopefully), avoid injury, and retire. While that seems to be the norm in this sport, factory Honda's, Cole Seely, didn't quite follow that path.

    #4 - Monocyte

    S1:E4

    The amateur motocross racing scene is just as, if not more cruel and unforgiving then professional Supercross and motocross racing. Fighting for "factory" amateur rides such as Team Green Kawasaki and the KTM Orange Brigade is only achievable via your success at the most prestigious amateur motocross national in the world... The Loretta Lynn's Amateur National Championship in Hurricane Mills, TN. However, what if you never had good results to warrant the attention of these rides? Or, what if you have had the results but have still been overlooked?

    #5 - Perception

    S1:E5

    “I have a pay check. It’s a consistent 30-year deal that I can retire on. I have a 401k, a truck, gas card, company cards… I mean, it’s a killer job. What did I ever get in racing?” says Sean Collier, the star in episode five of SPECTRUM entitled, Perception. A now retired Supercross and motocross racer, Collier, who was a highly touted amateur sensation in the late 1990s and early 2000s, has a steady job, a family with two children and a true passion for riding his dirt bike… For fun! In episode V, Sean opens up in grave detail about his personal struggles racing in the amateur motocross scene as well as his issues to find success in the professional ranks. From discussing a fist fight with his own father, watching his friends get abused by their own parents, to riding for factory teams and being dropped because of “asinine injury clauses,” Collier gives us a truly no-holds-barred look into what many truly do experience when chasing the dream of a professional dirt bike racer, but rather not talk about on camera.

    #6 - Inertia

    S1:E6

    In the racing world, we tend to assume that winning a championship changes everything... Fame, money, big houses, extravagant cars, etc. While, to an extent, this may be the case, it does not guarantee your future will now be free of issues. The title, "champion" does not make you immune to a single thing. At the end of the day, you are still a human being like the everybody else.
