Bobby Zalenski bags 21st career eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Championship Series victory at Nashville July 29th, 2026 by Justin Melillo For the majority of Bobby Zalenski’s wins in the eNASCAR Coca-Cola iRacing Championship Series, they come after a dominating day at the track, often on road courses. On the concrete oval known as Nashville Superspeedway, Zalenski had all of the cards on a night that looked to be heading towards a top-ten, at best. The ERA eSports Team competitor outlasted a second triple eNASCAR Overtime in-a-row to claim his third win of the 2026 season and the 21st of his career, breaking a tie for second on the all-time wins list with former series champion Nick Ottinger. Zalenski only managed to qualify 17th, and during the long run, was running around 10th. Suddenly, just before the pit cycle began, Zalenski turned up the wick. The field was fragmented on strategies, and after a race two weeks ago where everyone on the same strategy wound up facing a similar dilemma in eNASCAR Overtime at Indianapolis, this time it was all over the place. Zalenski’s choice to run up to second, pit for four tires, get his lap back, and stay out for the late race restarts put him in the prime position to grab a win he might not have been in contention for without the right breaks. On the second-to-last restart, Zalenski started in third, pushing the most-recent winner prior, Parker White, out into the lead around rookie Shawn Conklin. Once Zalenski was clear of Conklin, he moved to the outside of White and grabbed his right rear, pulling him back on the exit of the corner before the field exploded once again, setting up for a third and final restart. On that restart, the field held it together long enough
