How time flies: iRacing is turning 15 years old, having launched officially on August 26th, 2008 - a fact we already found astonishing in early May. To celebrate the occasion, iRacing is set to host four special series throughout August, with a big prize up for grabs for participating sim racers.

Looking back at 15 years of successful online competition, the four anniversary series use throwback content, some of it even being free cars included with every membership. The series run for a week each and race at different tracks every day.
The series' calendars partially include the same venues, so it will not be necessary to invest in seven circuits per series. Racers who participate in at least one race of each series will recveive a 15th Anniversary Award, and out of everyone who does, a random draw will decide 15 lucky drivers who win a prize of 1.000 iRacing credits.
Two series with a focus on road racing, two focusing on ovals, and most of the tracks included in every membership - if you are usually mostly competing in one of the disciplines, this might be a good time to try your hand at the other and possibly pad your iRacing wallet along the way.
