SRX Championship
https://racer.com/2021/01/04/srx-unv...2021-schedule/ It apparently is something like a race of champions type series featuring identical cars on short ovals. The story doesn't have a picture of the actual car yet, so not sure what is happening, but they have a schedule! SRX 2021 SCHEDULE June 12, 8 PM, ET – Stafford Motor Speedway (Stafford Springs, Conn.) June 19, 8 PM, ET – Knoxville Raceway (Knoxville, Iowa) June 26, 8 PM, ET – Eldora Speedway (New Weston, Ohio) July 3, 8 PM, ET – Lucas Oil Raceway (Brownsburg, Ind.) July 10, 8 PM, ET – Slinger Speedway (Slinger, Wis.) July 17, 8 PM, ET – Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway (Nashville, Tenn.) |

At least 9 full-time, plus two wildcards.

 The design reminded me of something that would be in a Cars movie. Draw some eyes on the front and it's good to go. |

Since Ray built it and has been running his kit hot rod in HSR I'm hoping he brings one of these with his Vette and old 24 stock car |

Looking at the lineup it kind of just looks like an old man championship.

Well yes, it is a fun series for established drivers to play on an even field with similar setup cars and be entertaining. It's not a feeder or development series, it is purely about having fun on a race track with fairly tough cars and putting on an entertaining event. It's not about lap times, being the fastest series on dirt, becoming a world champ or anything else.

Probably contract issues are a reason for not seeing these drivers. |

Contract, time, desire, timing, there are a multitude of reasons why drivers would not be able to make a race during their season. I don't think contracts regarding being a Chevy/Ford/Toyota guy would be much here as they aren't using a styled car but rather Ray's designs. But there may be rules about only X number of other appearances and guys have those booked already. Think Larson's old deal restricted his midget playtime to a certain number of events each year only as a common example, people would see him at all kinds of midget events but only ran Chili Bowl and one other as that used his seat time and for a while he couldn't even run there.

Don't forget everyone, Race 1 this weekend June 12 from beautiful Stafford CT. Ok, no idea where that is in Connecticut but it's a paved slight banking super mod track.

Stafford is 30 miles northeast of Hartford CT, and 20 miles southeast of Springfield MA.
Fun fact: Stafford Motor Speedway is owned and operated by Jack Arute's family. |
