NASCAR lawsuit opened by 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports

23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports have opened a lawsuit against NASCAR. They claim the sanction of forming an “illegal monopoly.”

Curtis Pulk, co-owner of 23XI Racing stated in a team release, “A true partnership, not dictatorship, is our goal.”

Jeffrey Kessler is a well known antitrust lawyer. He’s the attorney for 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports.

Kessler has stated, “NASCAR is the poster child for being an illegal monopoly. It is the only premier stock-car racing circuit in the country, maybe in the world. It got that position not by being the best, or by investing money, or by having the best thing out there that nobody competes with.”
