iRacing – HotLaps Ep. 18 – Homestead Miami Speedway.

The final race of the officially sanctioned 2013 NASCAR iRacing.com Series World Championship travels to Homestead Miami Speedway, where we will crown our virtual champion!

This season has featured very exciting racing in the new Gen 6 NASCAR Cup racecars. Reigning NASCAR iRacing Series Champion, Ray Alfalla, looks to secure his third consecutive championship but Tyler Hudson closed the points gap to just 2 points leaving Dover! With only two points separating the winner of the championship, any mistake could mean the difference between becoming a NASCAR champion and going home in second place. 

Homestead-Miami Speedway is a motor racing track located in Homestead, Florida. The track, which has several configurations, has promoted several series of racing, including NASCAR, the IRL IndyCar Series, and the Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series.
