Dale Earnhardt Jr. among American drivers in eNASCAR International event
On Tuesday, the eNASCAR International iRacing Invitational is going down with Dale Earnhardt Jr. competing in the event himself. Earnhardt is among a contingent of NASCAR drivers competing in the event for the United States.
This event will feature drivers from America, Europe, Mexico, Canada, and Brazil. Dale Earnhardt Jr. is the biggest name in the bunch. He’s always been a big proponent of iRacing and using it to push the sport forward.
Earnhardt Jr. will be joined by Anthony Alfredo, Carson Hocevar, Parker Kligerman, Rajah Caruth, Ryan Vargas, and Ty Majeski for the United States contingent.
Four-time NASCAR Mexico Series champion Ruben Garcia will be part of the Mexico group. Upcoming star Regina Sirvent is also listed as a competitor. For Canada, Treyten Lapcevich is representing the north.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. is all-in on iRacing
No matter how far back you go, Dale Earnhardt Jr. has been all about iRacing. From the beginning, the Hall of Famer has seen the potential from a training standpoint for future drivers and also a way for fans to connect with the sport.
It is no shock to see Caruth among the list of drivers as well. Rajah built his career off of iRacing and is now doing the thing in real life. While he is still young, he has shown a real knack for car control. Those inherent racing instincts are there with Caruth.
What I love is the mix of old and new. Dale Jr. doesn’t mind mixing it up with the young drivers. When he took on the Xfinity Series this season, he proved he could still be a top-5 driver on any given day. Seriously, he almost won that Bristol race before mechanical issues.
So, tune into the international iRacing event. You should be able to watch on Twitch via iRacing and NASCAR’s channels.
