The 2023 schedule was announced on December 21, 2022. All races were held on Thursday nights instead of Saturday nights. The 2023 season also started in July and ended in August for the first time. The first two seasons started in June and ended in July. The 2023 SRX schedule featured a return to
Stafford Motor Speedway for the third straight year (making it the only track on the SRX schedule in all three years of the series) and series co-founder
Tony Stewart's
Eldora Speedway dirt track for the first time since
2021. The other three tracks, two of which are paved and one (
Lucas Oil Speedway) of which is a dirt track, were new to the SRX. The schedule was designed based on the
NASCAR Cup Series schedule in order to attract drivers from that series to race in the SRX race on the Thursday before the weekend's Cup Series race. Each race except for the season finale at
Lucas Oil Speedway was held at a track in the same area of the country as the track that the Cup Series raced at that weekend.
Broadcasting All six races were broadcast live on TV in the United States on
ESPN, replacing
CBS and
Paramount+.
Lindsay Czarniak, who was the host role for the SRX on CBS in 2021 and 2022, did not return for this season. She previously worked for ESPN in the same role on their
IndyCar coverage. On July 6, ESPN revealed that
Nicole Briscoe, who was the studio host for
NASCAR on ESPN from 2011 to 2014, would be the host on the SRX TV broadcasts in 2023, replacing Czarniak. There was no roving reporter this season, a role previously filled by
Brad Daugherty in 2021 and
Willy T. Ribbs in 2022, resulting in each broadcast only having four commentators (down from five). ==Results and standings==
