Race calendar

The 2023 calendar was planned to be held over twelve races spanning across six weekends. Compared to 2022, Buttonwillow Raceway Park joined the schedule, replacing one of the three rounds at Thunderhill Raceway Park. The weekend at Laguna Seca was cancelled mid-weekend due to issues with the newly-resurfaced track, meaning only ten races were held.
