One of the busiest men in the world, presently apart from the world leaders, is the Hall of Famer Tony Stewart. At this juncture, the question has to be asked: is there any field in the motor racing world that this person cannot do? Apart from carving a legacy in the field of motor racing throughout his illustrious career as a driver, Stewart has built a relentless personality when it comes to enriching the sport and making it more dynamic.
Furthermore, it seems that he is far from being satisfied at this point, and is on a mission to make the sport reach newer heights and create a larger fan base by introducing various formats and series of racing in the world of NASCAR. Following his ambitious instincts, it seems there is more left in his satchel, and this is evident through a tweet.

Very few drivers or team owners have had such an eventful year as Tony Stewart has. Apart from making a major rejig within the team and struggling with the L3 penalty, welcoming a new team member, and also awaiting to bid farewell to Kevin Harvick, Stewart’s time as a co-owner of Stewart-Haas Racing has been a roller coaster ride, to say the least.
Amidst fulfilling his commitments as a team owner, Stewart, in order to keep his racing skills in check has also tried his hands in the world of drag racing. The former Cup Series driver also won the Top Alcohol Dragster at Las Vegas. Moreover, Tony Stewart, along with the other veterans of NASCAR, unveiled the third season of the Superstar Racing Experience. And if that is not all, he also collaborated with FloRacing to create history by deciding on a million dollars as prize money for sprint racing in Eldora.
While these triumphs may surely not come as a surprise to NASCAR fans, it seems that there is still an unquenched thirst left in the driver as he is set to announce some major events for the upcoming season. This was evident in the tweet from Kelly Crandall, the writer for RACER. She wrote, “Interesting media alert: the Professional Racers Owners Organization will have a media availability next week to announce “a major event making its debut in early 2024.”
The personalities involved as informed by Crandall in the upcoming announcement include, “Those included: Alan Johnson, Chad Head, Richard Freeman, Steve Torrence, Bob Tasca III, Tony Stewart.”

“100% OT. This is NHRA/Drag Racing related. Not NASCAR stuff.”
“Aren’t these guys just the car owners in NHRA? I assume this will just be some special event outside the NHRA. Maybe a NASCAR crossover or something during the west coast swing?”
“Saudi money– the LIV Golf of drag racing is coming.”
