Announced this morning, FloRacing is getting more action.
NASCAR and the streaming company, FloSports, announced on Thursday that the two companies will be partnering for 2022 and beyond, moving six series to the company.
The move includes each of the ARCA National, ARCA West and ARCA East tours as well as the NASCAR Whelen Modified Series, the NASCAR Pinty’s Series, and the NASCAR Advanced Auto Parts Weekly Series.
“Our partnership with FloSports is a win for motorsports fans at all levels and doubles down on NASCAR’s commitment to grassroots racing — the foundation of our sport,” Brian Herbst, NASCAR senior vice president, media and productions said in a press release. “We look forward to bringing fans all the racing they crave and investing in the tracks that provide lifelong memories to motorsports fans each weekend.”
The release also revealed that the deal includes ‘funding for local tracks and increased purses for drivers that compete in NASCAR’s touring and weekly series events,’ making clear the commitment and direction the sanctioning body is going to here.
“NASCAR shares our mission to grow grassroots motorsports and bring these races and athletes to an even wider audience across America and the world,” FloSports CEO and Co-Founder Mark Floreani said. “We are honored to align with NASCAR as we continue to invest in the future of this sport so that we build a home for fans to both watch and experience racing in completely new ways. We’re excited for what’s to come.”
The deal will bring an additional 280 races to the FloRacing banner that already includes upwards of 2000 events throughout the racing season. Fans can sign up for the service by going to FloRacing.com, creating an account, and gaining access for $150 per year.
