About Kurt Maxxon Racing Team

Kurt Maxxon Racing is the team featured in the Kurt Maxxon Series. These amateur sleuth mystery novels are being writtten by Jim Overturf.

The team competes in the Swift River Valley Stock Car Racing Association (SRVSCRA), a fictitious racing league running at nine different municipal tracks that are paved and 7/8 to one mile long.

As Kurt Maxxon travels to the various tracks to compete in the Sunday races, he often discovers a dead body. Since he is involved in the discovery, Kurt feels a “vested interest” is making sure the crime is solved correctly.

Kurt finds opportunities and open doors because of his popularity
and reputation, and learns clues that help him and the police
determine the killer.
