PlaySugarHouse.com is one of the first sports-books in the U.S. to be approved by New Jersey regulators to offer betting on the 2020 eNASCAR iRacing Pro Invitational Series.
The approval will now enable New Jersey players to place bets on a virtual auto race with the first race in the series they can bet on being the Toyota Owners 400 in Richmond on Sunday, 19th April 2020.
The Cup Series races are extremely realistic and feature genuine stars of past and present including Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jimmy Johnson and Clint Bowyer. The series of races commenced on 22nd March 2020 and are being broadcast on FOX Sports during regular NASCAR broadcast times, proving to be extremely popular and drawing more than a million viewers to the fierce iRacing competition.
Mattias Stetz, the Chief Operating Officer of Rush Street Interactive which operates PlaySugarHouse.com, commented that they are happy to be able to offer such an exciting and competitive entertainment event.
Stetz went on to say that it is also fun to see how these talented drivers will compare in the virtual world of competitive racing.
The schedule for virtual racing will follow the NASCAR Cup Series schedule, which was forced to postpone due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Together with the Toyota Owners 400, the virtual NASCAR series includes the Cup Series race at Dover and the Geico 500 at Talledego and will be making virtual stops at fan-favorite tracks from coast to coast.
Rush Street Interactive was founded in 2012 and launched its first betting site, PlaySugarHouse.com, in New Jersey in September 2016.
