Preseason changes
After airing on KLtv for 4 seasons, (2015-2018) the TM Master Cup Series and long-time commentator Dan Mullen will return to the Channel 44Sports network in 2019, for the first time since the 2014 Round of Decatur.

Eligible Chassis
The ban on customers cars in recent seasons has been lifted, and full-time teams are no longer required to run unique chassis, nor must independent and one-off entries field the Omecha and other spec cars. Some chassis will be exclusive to a team regardless; Volpi Racing Team will be the only team fielding the new VC11, but the previous year's VC10 will be available to other teams. Similarly, Matthews Performance will only provide its 2019-spec Aspira to Matthews Motorsports and select Independent teams, while making its 2018-spec car available to all others.

Lycoia Motors has made their Intimidator chassis exclusive to Power Steering, Inc., while developing the Inquisitor for Independent's Trophy teams and one-offs.

Currently confirmed chassis that will be legal for 2019 include:


 * Calton-Morel Mizar
 * Gessler MTW19
 * Lenard Cheyenne
