NASCAR & iRacing Renew Partnership with PlayVS
PlayVS, the leading amateur esports platform, announced the renewal of its groundbreaking partnership with NASCAR and iRacing, reaffirming its commitment to supporting the rapidly expanding eNASCAR College iRacing Series. This renewed collaboration will continue to bring high-octane, competitive virtual racing to college students across the country, providing unique career and scholarship opportunities through one of the most innovative programs in collegiate esports. This season will also mark the debut of PlayVS as the official league platform, following its recent acquisition of Playfly College Esports.
Launched in 2022, the eNASCAR College iRacing Series has quickly become one of the most engaging and inclusive collegiate esports competitions in the country. Powered by iRacing’s premier motorsport simulation platform and NASCAR’s deep racing heritage, the series gives full-time college students the opportunity to compete for scholarship prizes, develop real-world career skills, and gain exposure to professional motorsports and esports pathways.
The eNASCAR College iRacing Series has grown to over 300 schools and almost 500 unique racers. In April, the 2024-25 Series season concluded with Cal State Fullerton’s Logan Clampitt celebrating victory at the Homestead-Miami Speedway and earning $10,000 in scholarship prizes.
“Renewing our partnership with NASCAR and iRacing reflects our commitment to delivering competitive and meaningful esports experiences to college students across North America. The eNASCAR College iRacing Series is not just about virtual racing—it’s a launchpad for future talent in motorsports, gaming, and media,” said Charles O’Donnell, Sr. Director of College Esports at PlayVS.
Through iRacing’s hyper-realistic simulation software, students experience the thrill of authentic stock car racing while competing from their dorm rooms, esports arenas, or home setups. The upcoming 2025-26 season promises even more exciting races, new tracks, and increased prize opportunities.
“We’re proud to continue building the future of sim racing through our partnership with iRacing and PlayVS. The eNASCAR College iRacing Series is more than just competition—it’s a foundational bridge between the collegiate esports ecosystem and the world of NASCAR. As we enter the 2025–26 season, this partnership strengthens our commitment to developing young talent, expanding access, and inspiring the next generation of motorsports professionals,” said Ray Smith, Sr. Director of Esports at NASCAR.
