Announced in October, many of the best drivers in America are expected to compete in the 10-race national tour with a minimum $100,000 point fund. The championship team will be guaranteed $25,000.
The national series is made up of three races from each of the regional Super Late Model Series under the Track Enterprises banner; the ARCA / CRA Super Series, the ARCA Midwest Tour and the Southern Super Series. The championship event will be the All-American 400 at the Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway in Tennessee.
Track Enterprises, a Racing Promotions Company based in Illinois, will operate the STARS National Series. It announced the acquisition of the CRA sanctioning body in January and followed that up with the purchase of the ARCA Midwest Tour in July.
