The 2014 NASCAR PEAK Antifreeze Series was the 5th season of the eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Series. On February 25, 2014, iRacing.com and PEAK® Antifreeze/Coolant announced that PEAK would sponsor iRacing’s top NASCAR online racing championship series for the next three years. The season started at Daytona International Speedway on February 25 and concluded at Homestead Miami Speedway on October 7. The Gen 6 Toyota Camry made its series debut this season, finally completing the Chevrolet, Ford, and Toyota manufacturer trifecta. Beginning with this season, the series adopted NASCAR's updated Cup Series points structure, which was introduced in the NASCAR Cup Series beginning with the 2011 season. The race winner would now be awarded 43 points before bonuses, instead of the previous amount of 185. Drivers competed for a prize package of $18,050 (USD cash + iRacing credits), with $10,000 cash going to the champion.


Teams and Drivers

The 8-driver rookie class consisted of Alex Scribner, Brad Mahar, Brandon Chubirko, Brandon Hauff, Justin Bolton, Kwame Adjei, Mitchell Hunt, and Trey Eidson. A majority of the rookie class was not affiliated with a large team. With 40 drivers guaranteed a spot on the grid and a maximum of 43 cars allowed in a race, the 10 pro license drivers who finished 21-30 in the 2013-14 NASCAR iRacing Pro Series could qualify for the open spots on a per race basis.

Schedule

The 2014 schedule saw a majority of tracks return for another season. While the season opener at Daytona International Speedway and the season finale at Homestead Miami Speedway remained in their same slot on the calendar, most tracks had their dates shuffled around. With the schedule being reduced from 18 races to 16, some races needed to be removed. Talladega Superspeedway, Chicagoland Speedway, and Kansas Speedway were dropped from the schedule, while Watkins Glen International was added as the first road course race in series history. Auto Club Speedway replaced Phoenix International Raceway as the home of Round 3. The season was originally scheduled for 17 rounds; however, only 16 races would be contested as the planned Round 5 race at Richmond Raceway was cancelled. Richmond would be used as the site of Round 14, replacing the track originally scheduled for that date.
