​

Introduction

Welcome to the the second running of the RaceDepartment Indy 500 in iRacing. Last season saw a huge turn-out of drivers that gathered to pick up the virtual bottle of milk. Lots of crashes painted the picture of the first half of the race; close fighting dominated the second half. This year we're looking to go bigger and better than last year, so go get that FREE RaceDepartment Licensed Membership and sign-up for this annual high-speed thrill!

[Eric Estes]

Unexcused. Was in a Lotus oval race that ran longer then expected. At least I won it. Sorry would have run in any size field.

 

[Yoeri Gijsen]

Due to a lack of commitment from the majority of the drivers in this series, the remainder of the season has been cancelled.

Sorry to see that this has been cancelled, I can understand why though. Out of 8 (I think) who turned up a few disconnected due to the low numbers and it ended with only 3 of us finishing the race, At least I got a podium finish though .

Thanks to Yoeri for organising this league and also giving me help and advice on oval racing.

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

sorry to see this series end, was looking forward to joining you guys again at last event. but I think the mix of summer and tracks not owned made this end inevitable. thx for the work put into this, Yoeri, everything spick and span
