Harvick, the 2014 NASCAR Cup Series champion, announced last week that 2023 would be his last season in the series. Harvick also recently expressed an interest to compete in more short-track events when he purchased the CARS Tour racing series alongside Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Burton and Justin Marks.
The SRX will be entering their third season of competition. Last year, IndyCar veteran Marco Andretti scored the championship over NASCAR legends Ryan Newman and Tony Stewart.
Last December, it was announced that the series would move to ESPN on a multi-year deal, resurrecting the iconic “Thursday Night Thunder” branding.Â
Harvick also won the International Race of Champions title in 2002.
