After competing in the series as a driver in 2021, Willy T. Ribbs joined the SRX broadcast team in 2022 as the roving reporter, replacing Brad Daugherty.
As was the case in 2021, there was a rotating color commentator in the booth with Bestwick, with Ribbs at Stafford and I–55[16] and IndyCar Series driver Conor Daly at Five Flags, South Boston and the Nashville Fairgrounds.
NASCAR Cup Series driver Joey Logano was the color commentator for the season-finale at Sharon Speedway.
Prior to the event, Hélio Castroneves was announced as a last minute entrant after not being originally scheduled to compete.
Paul Tracy snatched the lead at the start until Pollard retook it with slightly over eight minutes remaining.
With under a minute left, Castroneves spun Ernie Francis Jr. while making a pass attempt but the race stayed green.
In a post race interview, it was revealed that SRX chief executive Don Hawk promised Castroneves a NASCAR ride at Daytona if he won an event.
