For the thousands of drivers who are interested in competing in the eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series in the future, the 2022 eNASCAR iRacing Road to Pro Qualifying Series kicks off on Thursday, February 17 with a visit to Daytona International Speedway. Featuring two legs of competition, the eNASCAR iRacing Road to Pro Qualifying Series will narrow down an open field of the world’s top sim racers to an eventual 20-driver pool, which will then take on the eNASCAR iRacing Road to Pro Contender Series for a chance at moving up in 2023.
The first leg of eNASCAR iRacing Road to Pro Qualifying Series competition features an eight-race schedule that runs every other Thursday. Any iRacer with a an A Class 2.0 license or above is eligible to compete in the series, which uses NASCAR Camping World Truck Series vehicles. The top 70 finishers in points over those eight races will advance to the second leg, where they will be divided into two snake splits and compete across seven more events. The top 20 finishers in points will then join the bottom 20 in eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series points to run the Contender Series in NASCAR Xfinity Series cars in November and December.
