    I went the oval route. What I did was just stayed in the back and took my time. Anytime I tried to push it, I would end up in a wreck. It the end, I have confidence and I'm winning races. From rookie to A class took me just over a month. I didn't race everyday though.

    Cars are ~ $12 and tracks ~ $15 (except for Daytona 2007). You get a good selection of cars and tracks with your membership though. I started with Lime Rock Park (included) and the Mazda MX-5 car (included). From there, you can buy what you need (either to race in a series that has non-included tracks/cars, or to try out tracks and cars that you're interested in.

    You'd have to do rookie races in the MX5, solstice or SRF until you get to License D 4.00 then you can buy the V8 supercar. Then do 4 time trials so you get fast-tracked to license C and then you can do V8 supercar races.

    @RX552VBK I bouth it 2 months ago, 12 usd for a month, now this is my second and looking forward to get the yearly one, I cant suggest u another sim racer but Iracing, Its an amazing experience with very but very clean drivers, if u want a higher License (to drive stronger cars) you have to play clean and hard, so everyone takes care about points and to actually use the brakes instead of pushing u out of the track to get further, if u do doesnt matter if u r 1st u'll lose points.

    I agree. It isn't as polished as, say, Forza4 or a GT5 but these have to appeal to all ages from 3up so they have to be more accessible. iRacing does away with the bells and whistles and gives a more adult experience. I'd just like to see more cars & tracks and, especially, free session hosting - it should be included with the yearly subscription, in my opinion, instead of being another chargeable feature. Oh, and more members would be cool too :)

    +TheEngiGuy 30 hours of iracing :D If you know how to play the license system, you can get to Sprint Cup level cars very quickly and relatively inexpensively. In short, I went from Rookie Street Stocks -> NASCAR Trucks -> Sprint Cup. I also own all of the NASCAR content. Total Spent = 2 cars (2*$11.95) + 22 tracks (1 free + 5*$11.95 + 17*$14.95) = $337.80. That seems like a lot of money, which it is; however, that is not the true dollar amount. I did not purchase $300+ of content at once. Neither should you. Usually, I bought my tracks in batches usually no more that ~$70 a purchase spread out over months. Sure, you may not be able to participate in a full season, but it is better than crying about spending $300 and not getting the most out of it. Actually it is good that ppl say expensive ect...cause this keep also the kids out of the game after the roockie class yuhuuuu ...oooh and dont forget the discount that you get with batch orders

    I don't know about on the oval side of things but on the road side I feel it is unfair to not have cash prizes available around the GT classes (corvette C6r/Ford GT). In the real world most people head down the GT route considering the much lower costs than in single seater racing so why is it seen as stepping stone to the Riley DP since they are both very different cars?
