Pollard is one of the biggest and most successful names on the late model circuit, having won such prestigious races as 2016 All American 400 at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway and the 2018 Oxford 250 at Oxford Plains Speedway. Pollard is also still up for voting to run the SRX race at Nashville as the local star as well.

Joining Pollard in the SRX event at Five Flags, in addition to the eight full-time drivers, will be Ernie Francis Jr. and Tony Kanaan. A 12th and final guest driver for this particular race remains to be determined.

The SRX event at Five Flags will take place on Saturday, June 18 with TV coverage provided by CBS.
