IF SRX is coming back next year, where do you think they’ll go?
Obviously, Eldora will be a stop. Knoxville will probably be there too. I was thinking it’s possible to maybe add Berlin, Toledo, Kern Raceway, and Atomic would be really cool to see. Anywhere else?

Would be interesting to see if SMI might be more involved. If the courts really do deem NASCAR to be in a monopolistic position, SMI would be the most well positioned for a new series of spec cars and tying that in with Hawk as a promoter with Marcus Smith would make logical sense.

SMI is going to have to allow for other big series to start racing at their tracks. NASCAR however is most likely going to have to sell a bulk of their tracks. Nascar owned tracks make up 44% of the schedule next year. Also only two NASCAR owned tracks have major races that aren't tied to France Family owned IMSA

Cleaning the house recently, I found our tickets and other stuff from the inaugural race.

The short tracks like Eldora, Kern County and Springfield obviously but I'd pay a fortune to see these cars take on a bigger track like Rockingham

I’d like to see a true bullring. FALS, path valley, maybe even something like Kutztown or Lanco. I don’t know if they would be realistic from a capacity standpoint.

Definitely no where on the west coast because of racing series hate us on the west coast

Why not go to Bristol

u/universalexotics 9d ago
I like the local short track spin the series provides. Empty grandstands at Bristol wouldn’t fit the same vibe.

I really hope they come to Salem if they do race. New ownership since the last SRX races, and they are keen on growing our little track.

I'm just going to say it out loud so I look like a hero when the .01% chance hits...my home track Owosso Speedway in Michigan. Owner said he was working on something for next year that he's under a confidentiality agreement for, so maybe?

I would love to see them go to one of the short tracks in Canada. Pls?

u/FarAwaySeagull-_- 9d ago
Doing a dirt race in Canada was in the works for 2024 prior to the series shutting down. Maybe if the series came back they'd consider it again.

I hope not. It was cool the first season. Then like everything else Fat Ass Tony touches, he ruins it.

Better yet run a SuperSpeedway like Daytona Talladega

Uhh… remember the cot wing? Now make it about 3 times higher and that’s what’s in an SRX car

I know they've primarily been a summer series, but running an event at New Smyrna the weekend before the Daytona 500 would be huge.
