The SRL National Super Late Model Tour Announces 2023 Schedule

 

 

The SRL National Super Late Model Tour Announces 2023 Schedule

 

Bakersfield, CA (December 3, 2023) – After a four-race inaugural season in 2022, the ‘SRL National Super Late Model Tour’ will more than double its schedule in 2023 with at least eight national championship events reaching from coast to coast.

 

The ‘SRL National’ is an expansion of the “SPEARS (SRL) Southwest Tour Series,” which has sanctioned Super Late Model events on the west coast for over twenty years.

 

In 2022, the ‘SRL National’ sanctioned marque events at Berlin Raceway, Citrus County Speedway and Mobile International Speedway.  The ‘SRL National Tour’ will return to those same tracks in 2023, plus the $25,000 to win “All-Star Showdown” at Southern California’s Irwindale Speedway and the 47th running of “The Rattler 250” at South Alabama Speedway.

 

The SRL National Super Late Model Tour is proud to announce the re-opening of Lebanon, Missouri’s I-44 Speedway exclusively for two ‘SRL’ events in 2023. Additional race dates for the “SRL National” tentatively include October 13th and 15th, as well as November 24th and 25th.

 

The driving force behind the ‘SRL National’ are California’s Larry Collins and Brian Olsen and Florida’s Ricky Brooks.  A professional, no non-sense style has worked for the SRL as they’ve built their reputation in the industry over the years.

 

“We’re not going to re-invent our approach.  We’re going to continue to manage our events in a professional manner, with solid tech and race procedures that are fair to all the competitors.” stated Brooks.  “It’s important to us to have good communication with the teams and create an atmosphere on race weekends that the teams enjoy being part of.”

 

For 2023, the ranking of drivers who compete in ‘SRL National’ events will be ranked by total money won at the events they compete in.  Some of the marque events will pay more money, which typically draws more of the top teams, so drivers will be rewarded accordingly at those bigger events.

SPEARS Southwest Tour Series 2023 Schedule Release

 

 

Bakersfield, CA (November 29, 2022) – As we approach the last weekend of Super Late Model racing on the national calendar, the SPEARS (SRL) Southwest Tour Series is proud to announce its 2023 calendar of events.

 

“In planning for 2023, we knew our teams were ready to get back on the road and compete at some racetracks the series hasn’t visited in a while,” stated the SRL’s Brian Olsen. “It’s great having a series that racetracks want to host and we’re looking forward to traveling back to Tucson and Colorado National this year.”

 

On January 21st, all four series under the SRL banner will compete together for the first time when the 2023 season kicks off in a big way at the $25,000 to win ‘All-Star Showdown’ at Irwindale Speedway.

 

Then, it’s time for the eighth running of the ‘Winter Showdown’ where names like Bubba Pollard, Ty Majeski, Kyle Busch, Derek Thorn and now defending champion, Jacob Gomes have driven to the Kern County Raceway victory lane.  The 2023 edition of the ‘Winter Showdown’ will take place on March 25th.

 

The SPEARS Southwest Tour Series will then make the trip to the Arizona desert as the series returns to Tucson Speedway on April 15th.

 

The series will return to Irwindale Speedway on May 20th, then will make its second stop of ’23 at Kern County Raceway on June 17th for the annual ‘Firecracker 100”.

 

The lone stop of 2023 at the famed Stockton 99 Speedway will take place on July 15th, followed by the long-awaited return to Colorado National Speedway just outside of Denver on August 12th.

 

Irwindale Speedway and Kern County Raceway are set to bookend the season with Irwindale on September 16th and then Kern County Raceway for the 35th annual “October Classic” on Sunday, October 15th.

 

There are currently discussions underway which may result in an additional spring and fall race date for the SPEARS Southwest Tour Series.

 

Look for the release of the SRL National, Spears Manufacturing Modified Series and the SPEARS SRL Pro Late Model Series schedules in the coming days.
