eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series Race Preview: logi PLAY DAYS 140 at Michigan

The eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series playoffs are here! Only four races remain in the 2024 season, and the 15th race of the year at Michigan International Speedway doubles as the first of three races to set this year’s Championship 4.

The 40 top-ranked eNASCAR drivers will take on the 2-mile venue in Brooklyn, Michigan in a 70-lap showdown on Tuesday night. Anyone can win, but a win for the 10 playoff drivers means a seat on stage at the NASCAR Hall of Fame and a chance to win a championship in October.

Race coverage begins at 8 p.m. ET at eNASCAR.com/live and across iRacing social media channels. Tune in 30 minutes earlier to catch the Countdown to Green at 7:30 p.m. ET.

Last Race: With only one race left before setting the eNASCAR Playoffs, the only guarantee to have a seat was with a win. Nearly half the field entered Pocono with that chance, but it was QuikTrip Pioneers Gaming’s Graham Bowlin who cashed in for his first win since 2022. After a slew of late race cautions, Bowlin restarted in fifth for the final attempt. Entering Turn 3, he was behind Femi Olatunbosun and Tucker Minter. After a brief three-wide moment, Bowlin exited the corner as the leader, and held on to earn a spot in this season’s championship battle.

Last Year: Once again, the eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series opens the playoffs with a trip to Michigan on Tuesday night. Last season, it was Garrett Lowe’s chance to clinch into his first Championship 4 appearance. 

Track Facts: Breaking ground in September of 1967, and opening just over a year later, Michigan International Speedway currently exists on the NASCAR schedule as one of the fastest ovals in the United States. The 2-mile, D-shaped venue will host both NASCAR Cup and Xfinity Series events this weekend, as well as the ARCA Menards Series, and has welcomed many other top-level series over the past half-century.

Next Race: After Michigan, the eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series playoffs continue onward with Texas Motor Speedway on Tuesday, August 27th at 8:00 p.m. ET. Qualified playoff drivers will have two more shots, including Texas, to either win their way into the Championship 4 or score enough points to claim a seat on stage at the NASCAR Hall of Fame.
