ASA Southern Super Series Finalizes Schedule

PENSACOLA, Fla. — The newly rebranded ASA Southern Super Series, presented by Sunoco, is set to begin its 11th season with the most diverse schedule in series history lying ahead.

Within its 10-year history, the Southern Super Series has been a platform for many to make their mark on racing history, whether it be as a stepping stone to different levels or simply as a home for an allegiance of fans to root on their favorite short track star.

A new alliance with Track Enterprises, the parent company for CRA, and the ARCA Midwest Tour will elevate the presence of the SSS on the national short track scene. Kicking things off will be a return to SpeedFest in Georgia on January 28. The event is a combined effort with CRA and a traditional non-points event that was won last year by short track star and former SSS Champion Bubba Pollard.

Next, the series will head south to New Smyrna Speedway on Valentine’s Day where the SSS will sanction the Clyde Hart Memorial in conjunction with the World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing. March 11 will be race No. 3 and will present the inaugural ASA STARS National Tour event at Florida’s Five Flags Speedway.

Return trips to Cordele on April 1 and to Stan Narrison’s Montgomery Motor Speedway on April 15 will set the tone for a busy month of May. In May, the SSS will visit North Wilkesboro Speedway on Tuesday, May 16, as a lead-in to NASCAR All Star Week. On Thursday, May 25, the SSS stars will invade the historic Hickory Motor Speedway to kick off racing’s famous Memorial Day Weekend.

On June 24, a trip is set for the beautiful Carteret County Speedway in Swansboro, N.C., before heading to the Music City as the North-South Challenge event moves to July 1 at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway. Three weeks later, a big doubleheader weekend in Pensacola is set for July 21 and 22, with an August 19 date set for a return to Crisp Motorsports Park and the Georgia Summer Nationals.

The 2023 SSS Champion will be crowned on Saturday, September 23 at the Home of the Snowball Derby — Five Flags Speedway. And lastly, the SSS joins in, to finish it all off with the running of the All American 400 at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway.
