Tune In Reminder: The Traxxas TORC Series presented by AMSOIL finale from Las Vegas on ABC, this Sunday, Nov. 8, 10:30 AM PST/1:30 PM EST

The 2010 season is set for the most exciting season in short-course racing history as the Traxxas TORC Series announces its plans for 2010. The schedule includes 16 rounds of championship points racing and two special "non-series points events".


"We wanted to get the schedule out now so racers and fans could start making plans", stated Ricky Johnson of TORC. "We are still having some conversations about some new tracks and formats but we want to go ahead and announce so our racers can start the sponsorship process early on. We are going away from the Friday night races and racing on Saturdays and Sunday afternoons wherever possible", Johnson continued. "Our sponsors are rallying behind us to continue the direction that the drivers, sponsors and fans have headed the series in our first season and we are excited about all the enthusiasm going into 2010."

The series champions will be crowned after the Crandon Labor Day weekend event.

In addition to the above schedule, TORC is planning two non-points special events. One event in the spring and one in the later in the year, after the points season has ended.
