NASCAR Ticker 2020 Component


The NASCAR Ticker 2020 Component will display a Ticker along the top of the screen displaying driver positions and other optional data. The design is based on the official NASCAR Ticker used in 2020.


Components are imported directly from within iRacing Live Timing. In iRacing Live Timing press F4 to open the Remote Control Tab and then F2 to enter Edit Mode. Click the Import Library button and select from the list the component you want to import. The component will then be imported to your Remote Control Tab in the first available empty space (often below existing components).

Laps To Go

You can change the lap that the ticker will switch to Laps To Go by entering this line into your Initial Variable Values:

Overlay.NascarTicker2020.LapsToGoThreshold = "25";

By default the ticker will switch with 25 laps remaining, adjust this value as required.

CSS Style Overrides


To customise your overlay we need to override the default CSS code that dictates how an individual component looks, where it is positioned and how it animates etc. In iRacing Live Timing press F3 to open the Configuration Panel, scroll down to find the Style Overrides field and click the 3 dots to open the screen on the left. Copy and paste the code below into the bottom of the Style Overrides window and adjust the values to get the desired effect. Read more information about using Style Overrides here: https://www.sdk-gaming.co.uk/knowledge-base/editing-css-styles/
