2024 eNASCAR Contender iRacing Series begins October 8th

One week removed from the epic conclusion to the 2024 eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series season, the eNASCAR Contender iRacing Series is set to take its place on Tuesday nights for seven-straight weeks. with 40 qualified drivers looking to make their way on to the main roster for the 2025 season.

Drivers that finished 21st or lower in the final eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series standings on the season will go up against the top drivers from the eNASCAR Qualifying iRacing Series, Round 2, which concluded their season as well two weeks ago. A total of 40 drivers will fight for the top-30 positions—a new rule in place this season that will translate into a driver pool of 50 drivers for the 40-car field.

Hopefuls such as Connor Yeroschak, Michael P Frisch, and Quentin Warman will go up the drivers who already know how to make the top-level series, including 2024 winners such as Wyatt Tinsley, Malik Ray, and Briar LaPradd. Former drivers of the series, such as Logan Clampitt and Brian Mercurio, are also looking to make their way back in, having walked the road in-full this season. We’ve even got one of the voices of the eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series—Blake McCandless—looking to trade the microphone for a seat in the series in 2025.

They’ll all have to face off against some former eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series champions, such as the 2017 series champion, Ryan Luza, as well as the most-decorated driver in eNASCAR history—4-Time himself, Ray Alfalla.
