2010 Sports Racer Series Explained

The 2010 Sports Racer Series is the inaugural running of the Sports Racer Series, an Australian motor racing series for small engined sports racing cars. The series began at the 2010 Clipsal 500 on 11 March and was scheduled to conclude at Eastern Creek Raceway on 24 October. A shortfall of entrants at the Phillip Island caused the cancellation of that event, and since then technical regulation clashes with the New South Wales series on which the remainder of the national series was to piggy-back, has seen no further events take place.
