"NASCAR 25," the first NASCAR console game from iRacing, does not hit the market until Oct. 14. However, gamers can plan for their upcoming sessions while looking through the packed driver rosters.
As part of a previous announcement, "NASCAR 25" will feature four racing series. The ARCA Menards Series, Craftsman Truck Series, NASCAR Xfinity Series, and NASCAR Cup Series will become available, along with some of the biggest names in each series.
The Cup Series, in particular, will feature 45 drivers. This list includes all 36 Cup Series regulars competing full-time this season. The list of guest drivers includes Corey LaJoie, Justin Allgaier, JJ Yeley, Burt Myers, Martin Truex Jr., Chad Finchum, Josh Bilicki, Jimmie Johnson, and Helio Castroneves.
Previous screenshots showed Connor Zilisch's name on a Cup Series leaderboard. However, iRacing did not include him in the list of confirmed options.
