Esports entertainment company Allied Esports announced alongside NASCAR an event tour to bring the Allied Esports Truck for gaming and racing activations.
NASCAR Gaming Activations
Boasting North America’s first and only 18-wheel gaming truck, the Allied Esports Truck will make multiple stops at the NASCAR Cup Series race Midways and Fan Zones. The seven stops start August 6 to August 8 at Go Bowling at the Glen in Watkins Glen, New York. This runs all the way to the NASCAR Cup Series Championship in Phoenix, Arizona from November 4 to 7.
Racing fans can get a taste of what video games and the gaming industry can accomplish in 2021. This partnership brings the mobile gaming arena to racing venues with gameplay from Rocket League, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and iRacing simulators. Fans and players can earn prizes and giveaways during each event’s weekend. On certain times, participants can even try the demo for Motorsport Games’ new NASCAR 21 game.
“The integration of gaming into major sporting events is a family focused, entertaining way to attract new audiences and brands,” said Jud Hannigan, CEO of Allied Esports. “The Allied Esports Truck shines a spotlight on gamers and the communities they live in, and we are thrilled to partner with NASCAR to bring racing and gaming fans across the country a new race weekend experience.”
