Original post: Although NASCAR fans will be without on-track activity for nearly two months, iRacing is stepping in to fill that void — and its upcoming event has 300 entries.
The eTruck Series Night in America Powered by FilterTime.com will take place on Thursday, March 19, at 7 p.m. and is presented by Podium eSports and Speed51. The race will be streamed live on Twitch, with a whittled-down field of 43 trucks vying for a win at the virtual Atlanta Motor Speedway.
NASCAR driver Ryan Vargas, who raced in three NASCAR Xfinity Series races last year, was the main organizer of the event.
Additionally, all funds from sponsorship, donations, entry fees and anywhere else are planned to be sent directly to two charities close to Vargas’ heart: Cranio Care Bears and FACES: the National Craniofacial Association.
