2010 RROL season

The 2010 RROL Elite Series season was the 13th season of RROL competition.

The champion was Ricky Flush, who became the first driver to win an RROL championship without winning a race. The season began and concluded at the Daytona International Speedway.

After the season, it was announced that Garth McCallister, Jr., and a group of investors from the American Stock Car Championship, purchased the (by this time) financially-struggling league. "We can make a legitimate American series that has the spirit of the ASCC and the origins of what made 1980s TM Master Cup series racing great," McCallister said. "We hope to revisit many tracks that Omecha took off the calendar, tracks like Texas World Speedway, Hickory, Rockingham and Charlotte Motor Speedway that the fans loved, but that Omecha didn't like because some foreigner was throwing a ton of money at them."

Robert Clarke said, "We were having financial issues, and they came to us with an offer. With the economy already being this tough, I thought that in the end, this would be the best option, even if I am no longer involved with it...at least for the time being."

Reaction was swift, and mixed to say the least. Many long-time RROL teams expressed they would not return to the series, citing the reputation of the ASCC brass (namely, the officials' bias toward white American men) as the primary reason. The RROL's top three officials, president Thomas Clarke, head of officiating John Vernon, and competition director Larry Chambers all tendered their resignations as a result of the buyout.

Clarke would then team up with British billionaire Mark Vaughn to form the Vaughn Stock Car Championship.
