Synopsis: After a thrilling debut in with NASCAR Cup Series cars at Atlanta Motor Speedway just over a week ago, The Replacements expands to an eight-race series that will alternate between Cup cars and street stocks. This week’s event adds iRacing legends and real-world racing standouts Ty Majeski and Ron Capps to the entry list, which was already stacked with professional talent thanks to names like Dale Earnhardt Jr., Chase Briscoe, and William Byron. But they’ll all be chasing Josh Williams, who traded in his space in the spotter’s stand to dominate the debut Replacements race in Atlanta.
