They urgently need to think of a way to avoid each new car adding to field splitting. I’m hoping for multiclass racing, but not sure it would be enough.

That plan for the future will be to have 1 car per license, or in the case of the road racing side of things, it will most likely be one open wheeler and one tin top per license. The cars that aren’t used in official series will be available for use by leagues.

They also announced yesterday that they are reducing the minimum number of drivers needed for a race to become official, which should pull in alot of drivers who wait on the fences to see if it will be official before joining.

Once the leagues go live, they intend on introducing an incentive programme. iRacing credits will be awarded to anyone who participates in at least 8 races in each of at least 2 different official series each season. The amount awarded will most likely depend on the license level of the car, so more credits for higher license levels. These credits can be used to pay for subscription or new content.

All in all, they are very focused on trying to encourage active participation, and I’m sure additional measures and incentives will be added as necessary and as they think of them.

Klaas Jan: Great news! Looking forward to Philip Island, it’s a great track.

Let me second that, it is indeed a fantastic track to race on

iRacing is clearly fast tracking cars which are part of their real life racing licensing deals, so I expect the Indycars to make it before any of those tin tops I mentioned above, mostly because they are most likely to increase fields rather than splitting fields still further among road racers.

They have said that IndyCars will come at the start of next season. The rest will come later.

They will also have user-created leagues next season, and the least popular cars probably won’t have an iRacing-run “standard series” any longer.
