SMASH HQ iRacing Truck Series Goes Live: Slingshot TV Named Official Broadcast Partner

By SMASH HQ — March 17, 2026

The SMASH HQ iRacing League continues to level up as opening weekend approaches.

In a major step forward for the league, Slingshot TV has officially signed on as the broadcast home of the SMASH Craftsman Truck Series, bringing live race coverage to Friday nights starting this week.

This isn’t just another league — this is the beginning of something built to feel real.

Friday Nights Just Got Bigger

With Season 1 set to kick off, the addition of Slingshot TV instantly raises the standard for the entire league.

Fans and drivers can now expect:

• Live race broadcasts

• Driver-focused coverage

• Professional-style commentary

• A more immersive race night experience

The goal is simple — make SMASH HQ feel like a real motorsports product, not just another hosted session.

And this is a big step in that direction.

Driver Info Needed for Broadcast

To help bring the broadcast to life, the Slingshot production team is asking all Truck Series drivers to submit their information ahead of opening night.

This allows the broadcast team to:

• Learn more about each driver

• Personalize race coverage

• Display driver info during events

• Properly introduce drivers on stream

Drivers will also have the ability to submit headshots, number files, and additional details used in broadcast graphics.

Where To Submit Info

All Truck Series drivers should check the

Announcements channel in the SMASH HQ Discord for full details and instructions.

If you're planning to race Friday nights, this step is important — it directly impacts how you’ll be presented on the broadcast.

This Is Just the Start

With:

• Live broadcasts now confirmed

• Driver grid continuing to grow

SMASH HQ is quickly turning into something bigger than expected.

There’s still time to get involved — whether you're behind the wheel or watching the action unfold live.

Final Word

This is what SMASH HQ was built for.

Real drivers. Real races. Real coverage.

Friday night lights are coming — and now, the whole thing is going live.
