eNASCAR College Charlotte Time Attack Qualifying Closes October 4

Time Attack qualifying is open for the Queen City Crown at Charlotte Motor Speedway, the next tournament in the 2026–27 eNASCAR College iRacing Series. The official iRacing announcement sets the qualifying window from September 29 through October 4.

Eligible students must complete the specially marked Time Attack competition and register for the series. A driver who already registered for a previous event does not need to submit a second registration. Setting a lap alone does not establish eligibility for the tournament.

The top 100 eligible students qualify for the first week of competition on October 7. From that field, 40 advance to the final on October 14. The format gives the qualifying session a clear purpose: it determines entry to the tournament rather than simply producing a standalone leaderboard.

The season again operates with the PlayVS College League and offers a share of $60,000 in scholarship prizes across eight tournaments. A School Championship joins the returning Student Championship, adding a separate way for colleges and universities to be represented in the season standings.

The programme continues to use NASCAR Trucks and reintroduces road-course racing through a partnership with IMSA, using the Ford Mustang GT4. That season-level information should not be confused with the exact car and session settings shown for each individual event in the simulator.

To find the qualifying session, open Go Racing in the iRacing UI, choose Time Attack Competitions and search for eNASCAR College iRacing Series. Then follow the official registration link to check the participation requirements. The October 4 close comes before the first tournament round, so students should complete both steps within the qualifying window.
