There’s a pretty vocal group of sim racers out there that complain about iRacings monthly membership and then having to buy additional content. I could see it being expensive for someone on a very tight budget, but comparing it to other things we entertain ourselves with, Movies, going out to dinner, etc, it’s relatively cheap in comparison. Sure there’s other sim racing titles that get you everything in one package on the cheap, heck, the Race 07 series is practically nothing and look at rFactor with all the mods out there. But can you race them, 24/7 in a structured environment ? Not unless you find a league.
That brings me to this “Black Friday” deal that iRacing has had now just about every year in it’s existence. What it means is that for a period of time, you can purchase a One Year (or multiple years) iRacing membership at half price.
When it comes down to it, you can make a $49 (half off a year) membership cost only $4 per year if you participate. In this “Getting Started in Sim Racing” video, I discuss exactly how to do that. If you fast forward to the 4:30 second mark, we talk about how.
