Steven Wilson took the checkered flag in the first race of 2025 Enascar Coca-Cola Iracing Series season on Tuesday evening and prevailed at a virtual Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, FLA.
Wilson became the eighth driver in series history to record 10 career competitions. He crossed the finish line 0.039 second before Parker White, last year’s champion.
“This is absolutely fantastic,” said Wilson, who lives in Iowa City, Iowa. “I am so pumped to win daytona. This is not a place that I am really fond of racing on usually, but I feel that I worked really well here. … Hopefully it will lead me directly into the playoffs.”
White, a Norridgewock, Maine, resident, was pleased with second place.
“In my opinion, I think Steve was a kind of hard lock in the playoffs anyway, so at least for me this doesn’t change anything to me and looks like the future of the season,” White said.
Behind Wilson (No. 77 Chevrolet) and White (No. 95 Chevrolet) were Malik Ray in No. 1 Chevrolet. Zack Novak ran # 2 Toyota and came in fourth place while Tucker Minter took No. 97 Chevrolet to fifth place.
The series will continue on February 25 on a virtual Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
