Series Sponsored By: YesterYear Racing

YesterYear Racing™ (YYR) is a unique League on the iRacing platform that ties history to the present day.  Because of the many customizable parameters available in iRacing, each race in YYR is set up based on an actual historic race.  Race length, track, time of day, and weather all mirror the race that took place in history. In addition, the YYR League follows the rules and point system in effect during the period in which the historic series took place.

 

The launch of YYR will take place in March of 2024 and include only one series.  The inaugural series will be based on the 1990 NASCAR Whelen Modified and S.M.A.R.T. Modified seasons. Races will take place on Tuesday evenings at 8:30 pm EST after a 55-minute practice session and a 5-minute qualifying session.  The first race will be held on March 12, 2024, followed by 14 races throughout the calendar year 2024.  All races will be broadcast live by Marconi Entertainment, a line of business within Maconi Setup Shop LLC, and will have a producer and two broadcasters calling each YYR race.

 

There are three goals of YYR.  To provide a competitive, fun, and entertaining League for fans of both racing and racing history; to bring attention to short track stock car racing’s rich history; and to lobby iRacing to scan more short tracks that these cars race on.
