The future of NASCAR includes real drivers and video game players.
Self, a former road racer with four NASCAR K&N Series wins to his credit, says iRacing has contributed to his success.
“Unlike past generations of road racers who tried to make the switch to ovals, I had the chance to practice 24/7 on iRacing.com,” he says. “While focusing on my oval racecraft, iRacing also enabIed me to experiment with tweaks to the chassis to better understand the ins and outs of oval track setups.”
