Roberts Racing signs on with Lux Performance / NayKid Racing for Speed World Challenge


Roberts Racing is pleased to announce that the #89 Dodge Viper Competition Coupe, driven by Fred Roberts, will make the teams pro racing debut in the SCCA Pro Racing Speed World Challenge series this July at Mid-Ohio Raceway. Roberts Racing has signed on with Lux Performance / NayKid Racing for a number of races and will be teammate to Cindi Lux (http://www.cindilux.com/), a veteran driver and seasoned instructor currently competing in the Speed World Challenge in the number #2 Dodge Viper with factory support through Mopar.


With over thirty starts between the Michelin Challenge Series and the Viper Racing League, all resulting in top three finishes in-class, Roberts Racing is excited about this opportunity to work with a pro team and take our experience to the next level. After careful consideration, we felt that NayKid Racing was a great fit to work with our team and they genuinely want to help us through the normal rookie "jitters" in moving to a pro series. NayKid Racing has had an outstanding season, and most recently, Cindi qualified third at Miller Motorsports Park with an impressive finish in fifth in that same race.


Roberts Racing will continue with our full schedule in the Viper Racing League concurrent to running the Speed World Challenge GT with our second of three SCCA Pro SPEED World Challenge events at Mosport International Raceway in August.
