For the fifth consecutive year, iRacing and NASCAR officials are pleased to announce the return of the eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Championship Series season finale to the NASCAR Hall of Fame. On October 13, four of the world\u2019s top virtual NASCAR drivers will compete in downtown Charlotte for the honor of hoisting the Dale Earnhardt Jr. Cup and taking home a $100,000 check for winning the title.<\/p>\n
\u201cNearly 2,000 competitors began this season with a shot at the championship. Now four remain, racing for a $100,000 winner\u2019s prize and their place in eNASCAR history,\u201d said Ray Smith, NASCAR Senior Director of Sim Racing. \u201cCoca-Cola\u2019s continued support helps give the best sim racers in the world a stage worthy of their talent. Returning to the NASCAR Hall of Fame for a fifth consecutive year builds on a tradition that brings out sport\u2019s history and the next generation of racing talent together.\u201d<\/p>\n
This year\u2019s championship contenders include defending series champion Steven Wilson of Spire Motorsports, veteran Bobby Zalenski of ERA eSports Team, Connor Yeroschak of Letarte Esports, and Wyatt Tinsley of Kansas City Pioneers. Yeroschak and Tinsley will be making their first competitive appearances at the Hall of Fame, while Wilson and Zalenski have been regulars in championship contention for most of the event\u2019s history.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe annual eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Championship Series finale from the NASCAR Hall of Fame is one of the most exciting events on our calendar every year,\u201d said Otto Szebeni, iRacing Vice President \u2013 Sales and Marketing. \u201cWe\u2019ve had a series of incredible finishes and points battles go down to the wire, and we expect this year to be the same. Thank you as always to NASCAR and the NASCAR Hall of Fame for their continued support as we crown the next eNASCAR champion!\u201d<\/p>\n
As was the case last year, the championship-eligible drivers will be competing on the virtual Homestead-Miami Speedway. A new winner would join Wilson (2023 and 2025), Casey Kirwan (2022), and Parker White (2024) on the list of drivers to take eNASCAR\u2019s highest honor on stage in Charlotte, while Wilson would become the first driver to ever go back-to-back at the Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s an honor for the NASCAR Hall of Fame to serve again as the presenting sponsor and host venue for the eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series season finale,\u201d said Winston Kelley, Executive Director of the NASCAR Hall of Fame. \u201cOur realistic iRacing simulators have been among our most popular interactive experiences at the Hall since we opened in 2010. Our strong partnership with NASCAR and iRacing not only makes this a natural fit, it is also a part of the long list of major NASCAR events we\u2019re honored to host at the Hall each year. We\u2019re also proud to showcase a replica of the Dale Earnhardt Jr Cup with past champions at our iRacing simulators in the NASCAR Hall of Fame.\u201d\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
