Championship Overview
|
The 2019 Imago Overdrive Championship Series is the sixth and upcoming season of Formula Overdrive, second under National Sports Club sanctioning, but the first run independently from it. This also marks the debut of Imago as the title sponsor of the series.
The season features 12 events, 10 on ovals and 2 on road circuits, with all ovals from the 2018 season returning, plus the formation of a "Triple Crown", featuring the opener round at Fontana, the race at Michigan and the Championship Race at Texas Motor Speedway, all three of those races will feature 32 starters, while regular events will have 24 cars starting the races.
The duel race system is ditched in favor of a traditional single-race weekends format, allowing events to be extended in length, with the average event being between 100 and 200 miles.
The chassis and bodies will once again be constructed by Avril, as Atsuro Technologies, Lenard and STS join the series, with the Tremwell badged ClarTech engines staying within the series.
