ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû51xxtv

The 2022 iRacing virtual ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû51xxtv Runoffs is finally here! Just like the 2022 ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû51xxtv National Championship Runoffs that took place at VIRginia International Raceway from Sept. 24-Oct. 2, the iRacing virtual ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû51xxtv Runoffs will see hundreds of racers qualify and race in a similar multi-day format as the “IRL” Runoffs (a first for iRacing competition), with qualifying week wrapping later today. Then, on Saturday, Oct. 22, the main races in eight classes will take place on a virtual VIR stage, with those battles streamed live with a professional broadcast team calling the action as it happens.

Want to witness these epic virtual battles for yourself in real time? Spectating is a click away – and free! Have a sim setup and want to make a last-ditch run to qualify for one of the main races? Keep reading....

What You Need to Know

The long and short of it is that the races will be streamed live on and . But wait, there’s more, as Gregg Ginsberg and Larry MacLeod will be calling the action live during Saturday’s virtual races – they were part of the professional broadcast team that brought you the 2022 ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû51xxtv Runoffs at VIR barely a month ago.

Forty racers will qualify per race, which will undoubtedly include many racers in the ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû51xxtv community, some of whom raced during the 2022 ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû51xxtv Runoffs itself.

While iRacing’s vehicles don’t always perfectly align with ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû51xxtv’s GCR classes, there are uncanny parallels. Here’s a list of the classes, as well as Saturday’s broadcasting schedule:

(Note: A second set of iRacing virtual ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû51xxtv Runoffs races kick off at 10 p.m. EDT on Saturday, 10/22, running through 5 a.m. EDT on Sunday, 10/23. These races will not be broadcast.)

Wanna Race?

As the saying goes: To finish first, first you must finish. A step beyond that is to stand any chance in racing, you must show up.

If you competed in any of this week’s qualifying sessions but perhaps didn’t make the cut of the top 40 racers per class, you’re encouraged to attend Saturday’s races on your simulator in the chance others fail to show in time for the green flag. The iRacing virtual ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû51xxtv Runoffs is an iRacing Super Session, so if you’re an active iRacing member, you know how this works.

If you have a sim rig, an iRacing membership, and hold a D class road license or above in iRacing, qualifying is still on for Saturday’s broadcast – so jump in! Friday’s qualifying is taking place right now, with the final qualifying session beginning at 7:30 p.m. EDT – cut free from work right now and start racing!

A complete schedule and other requirements for the iRacing virtual ÎçÒ¹¸£Àû51xxtv Runoffs can be found on.
