NBC TrackPass To Host iRacing Grand National Tour
The iRacing platform has always had a heavy influence of short-track racing -- from the variety of cars it offers, to the tracks in the game, to the competitors who wheel the sims.
Truex Management Group is teaming with Burton Kligerman eSports to bring that short-track racing to TrackPass on NBC Gold in a four-race series that will stream on Wednesday evenings.

The 2020 Grand National Tour, which will utilize the ARCA Menards Series cars, will take its initial green flag on Wednesday, April 15. The series will visit four renown short tracks: Connecticut's Stafford Motor Speedway, Virginia's South Boston Speedway, California's Irwindale Speedway and Florida's 5 Flags Speedway.
The field of drivers will be made up of NASCAR celebrities and short-track heroes. All proceeds from the presenting and primary partners will benefit each participating short track.
The series is supported by Eneos, NAPA AUTO PARTS, Bill McAnally Racing, Marquis Spas, Valvoline and LIUNA.
