eNASCAR Heat Pro League Showcase Races

With the 100 finalists named, it’s time for NASCAR Heat 3 racers to show their stuff. The next leg of the eNASCAR Heat Pro League process is the Showcase Race series — a platform for racers to prove they’ve got the on-track savvy to back up their numbers.

The first Showcase race takes place Thursday at the virtual Daytona International Speedway.

 

iRacing Paint Schemes of the Week

With the Daytona 500 right around the corner, Mike Holloway painted a modern version of Derrike Cope’s 1990 Great American Race-winning paint scheme for the modern-day Chevrolet Camaro ZL1.

Oh, and Mike Wood created the same paint scheme for iRacing’s Super Late Model for those who’d like to rock that 1990 style on short tracks — mustache not included.
