eNASCAR College iRacing Series Race Preview: SCW 120 at Auto Club
October 17th, 2022 by Chris Leone
The eNASCAR College iRacing Series Powered by NACE Starleague continues its second semester of action on Tuesday night with a visit to Auto Club Speedway for the SCW 120. The race will stream live on Tuesday at 8PM ET on eNASCAR.com/live and across iRacing social media channels.
About the Series: The eNASCAR College iRacing Series gives college students from the United States and Canada the opportunity to compete for their share of $60,000 in scholarships. Using the NASCAR Xfinity Series cars, 40 drivers qualify for the event by registering here and posting their fastest lap times in a two-week Time Attack through the iRacing UI. With well over 150 colleges and universities represented in the first Time Attack of the season and only one representative per school, drivers are competing not only against the greater iRacing community, but also their own classmates, for a spot on the prestigious grid.
Track Info: Since its opening in 1997, Auto Club Speedway has been a staple of the NASCAR Cup and Xfinity Series calendar every year except for 2021 (due to the COVID-19 pandemic). The two-mile, D-shaped oval is well known for producing some of the fastest speeds in the sport, with long straightaways giving way to 14 degrees of banking in the corners. In the fall of 2020, Auto Club Speedway rocked the motorsports world by revealing plans to eventually convert into a half-mile short track, with work due to begin after its February 2023 NASCAR weekend.
