Jim Beaver eSports drivers Malik Ray and Garrett Lowe are ready to do battle in the fourth round of the 2023 eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series tonight, as the championship heads to Richmond Raceway. Coverage kicks off at 8:30PM ET with Countdown to Green, before the green flag itself falls at 9PM ET.
After a heartbreaking finish to the previous race at Atlanta Motor Speedway, both drivers are ready to make good on the promise they’ve shown all year. After qualifying on the outside pole in the #7 Belching Beaver Ford Mustang, Ray led double-digit laps on the reconfigured Atlanta track before getting caught up in a late-race accident that knocked him out. Lowe carried on towards the front of the pack in the #15 Big Green Egg Ford Mustang, but his dreams of returning to the winner’s circle for the first time since last sprint at Kansas were thwarted in overtime after he was spun while leading the field.
The good news? Ray remains well within the playoff hunt at ninth in points thanks to top-fives in the first two points races of the season at Daytona and Milwaukee, while Lowe was dominant on the Los Angeles Coliseum short track in the preseason Clash, and Richmond is among the shortest tracks on the eNASCAR schedule at .75 miles. The squad’s ready to go—are you?
