Steven Merzlak Racing (SMR) is a team currently operating in the ISCRA Can-Am Cup Series and the ISCRA Sparco Pro Series. Opened in 2015 by former driver Steven Merzlak, the team has dominated in its short existence, earning 16 wins and the 2018 driver's championship with Alex Pearson.

Upon its debut in 2015, the team ran Chevrolets, winning its first 15 races and the 2018 championship with Alex Pearson behind the wheel.
