Superstar Racing Experience suffers issues ahead of 2024 season
The SRX Series is a stock car series owned by Ray Evernham and Tony Stewart. It features cars supplied by the series itself in a six week mini-series each Summer.
Read the SRX statement below.
5 of the six races were already announced. The location for the season finale was never released.
The races have been broadcast live since the inception of the series. They originally made their debut on CBS before making the switch to ESPN in 2023.
Now, the 2024 season has been abruptly postponed.
Ray Evernham, a co-owner of SRX recently entered a partnership group with other ventures. They have purchased the IROC brand and have plans to run an IROC event in 2024.
SRX Statement
“It is with deep disappointment that we announce the postponement of SRX’s fourth season,” the series opened in a statement.
“We entered the next phase of our racing series with great anticipation and excitement for what was ahead. Our expectations, however, have been tempered by market factors that have proven too much to overcome.”
“Time has run out to put forth the kind of events our fans, partners, drivers and tracks deserve. We’re thankful to each for their commitment, their contributions and their support as we brought a new idea to reality.”
“The racing industry continues to evolve and we are actively exploring strategic options for the series’ long-term potential. We made this announcement now to allow our partners the time and flexibility to best serve their interests.”
“We will provide updates on future plans for SRX when they’re available.”
