We get three new cars, the Gen 4 Chevrolet Monte Carlo and Ford Taurus for Nascar, on top of the Ferrari 296 Challenge.

A new track has also been added, and it’s the Shell V Power Motorsport Park at The Bend in Tailem Bend, Australia.

Nascar fans are also getting a pretty massive refresh with 12 tracks that received overhauls ranging from a full redesign to art changes.

These are Richmond Raceway with a fully new rendition, a repaved Iowa Speedway, on top of Echo Park Speedway, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Lime Rock Park, Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park, Martinsville Speedway, Michigan International Speedway, Nashville Superspeedway, Phoenix Raceway, Pocono Raceway, and Talladega Superspeedway.

You can find the full changelog below, on top of a look at the new Nascar cars.

  • Gen 4 Chevrolet Monte Carlo and Ford Taurus: Take a trip back to 2003 with these classic 900 horsepower stock cars. Each features two unique configurations—Stockcar and Superspeedway Stockcar—with distinct bodywork optimized for different tracks.
  • Ferrari 296 Challenge: Conquer Ferrari’s unique single-make challenger, a lightweight, high-powered beast producing over 700 horsepower in its completely bespoke design. The 296 Challenge will be AI-ready upon its release.
  • Shell V Power Motorsport Park at The Bend: Featuring seven distinct layouts, all of which will be unlocked for AI use immediately, The Bend is headlined by its massive GT Circuit—the second-longest permanent motorsport circuit in the world.
  • NASCAR Refresh: The next phase of our look at NASCAR tracks introduces an all-new Richmond Raceway, the addition of the repaved Iowa Speedway alongside its original Oval scan, and art overhauls to 10 additional tracks.
  • GT3 Class Overhaul: The result of six months of extensive development work, the GT3 class has received major tire and physics overhauls to deliver our most realistic road racing yet.
  • NASCAR Cup Series Next Gen Updates: We’ve also introduced tire and physics updates to the NASCAR Cup Series cars, including updated aerodynamic parameters that reflect current performance and a CFD-based drafting model developed in tandem with NASCAR.
  • Dallara IR18 Updates: INDYCAR’s vehicle of choice gets rain tires for the first time, as well as visual and performance updates to bring it up to 2025 spec. The IR18 hybrid system will be updated in a future release.
  • Rain: Also receiving rain tires are the Super Formula SF23 and Lotus 79, while the Skip Barber Formula 2000 will also see updates to its rain tires.
  • iRacing AI: Rounding out the AI unlocks are the Audi R18 and Porsche 919 LMP1s, Silver Crown, and the final remaining layouts at Daytona International Speedway.
  • Paint Kit: 90 new sponsor options are available for selection in the sim, including top official NASCAR partners and other globally relevant motorsport brands. In addition, the different configurations for both the Gen 4 stock cars and Dallara IR18 are now viewable in the car viewer through a new drop-down module.

If you’re unfamiliar with iRacing, it’s a subscription-based, esports-focused racing simulation platform on PC considered by many to be one of the most realistic in the industry. It features precisely simulated cars and LIDAR-scanned tracks that reproduce their real counterparts, making it popular among many real racing drivers who use it for training.

It’s also an attractive esports platform as it features racing regulations closely related to the ones used in real motorsports to create an online esports environment that feels as professional as possible, encouraging clean racing, racecraft, and fair play over winning or placing high in the rankings.

iRacing partners with several real-world racing series and organizations, including Nascar, IMSA, the FIA, and many more.

The company behind iRacing is also publishing the next Nascar game, Nascar 25, which will be released this fall for PC and consoles.
