Superstar Racing Experience (SRX), officially known as the Camping World SRX Series, is an American stock car racing series founded by Tony Stewart, Ray Evernham, Sandy Montag and George Pyne.[1] The formation of the series was announced on July 13, 2020, and debuted on June 12, 2021, televised on CBS on Saturday nights.
On January 31, 2022, the series was renewed for a second season that premiered on June 18, 2022 and was also aired on Saturday nights.[2] Its third season aired on July 13, 2023, on ESPN with the series moving races to Thursday nights.
On January 11, 2024, it was announced that the 2024 season was postponed due to market factors.[3] with Everham later stating in an interview with Forbes that the poor television ratings for the third season was the primary market factor for the cancelation of the series.[4]
On March 22, 2024, the Skip Barber Racing School announced that it had acquired the series and is forming a plan for a 2024 season.[5]
