During the 2021 SRX season, he revealed plans of racing in the Xfinity Series with speculation pointing at Stewart’s Stewart-Haas Racing as a potential suitor.
SRX, a short track series owned by three-time NASCAR Cup Series and 1997 Ind圜ar champion Tony Stewart, saw Andretti win at Slinger Speedway during the inaugural season in 2021 before taking the championship in 2022 despite going winless. Upon retiring from full-time competition (only returning for the 500), he turned towards closed-wheel racing such as IMSA and the Superstar Racing Experience. “I have really taken a liking to the stock car experience and look forward to having some fun driving the Big Machine Vodka Spiked Coolers #48 Camaro in Charlotte.”Īndretti, whose lineage needs no introduction, was a mainstay in Ind圜ar from 2006 to 2020, winning twice and scoring the Indianapolis 500 pole in 2020. “I’m grateful to (team owner) Scott Borchetta for giving me this cool opportunity to try my hand at an Xfinity road course,” said Andretti. He will drive the #48 Chevrolet Camaro for Big Machine Racing Team. Marco Andretti had been eyeing a NASCAR ride since exiting the NTT Ind圜ar Series, and he will finally get his chance when he enters the NASCAR Xfinity Series race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Roval on 8 October.
