iRacing announced yesterday that they will add two new touring cars to the service for 2022 Season 1 with the addition of the Honda Civic Type R and Hyundai Elantra N TC.
These two new vehicles will join the Audi RS 3 LMS in the 13th Week Touring Car Challenge, a single-week touring car series that runs after next week’s build and will also feature the iRacing debuts of Knockhill Racing Circuit and an all-new scan of Watkins Glen International. The cars will then assume their positions in the C-class iRacing IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge and D-class Touring Car Challenge for 2022 Season 1 the following week.
