On August 26th, iRacing turns 15 years old. The service is celebrating its anniversary with weekly series of events - but that is not all: All active members will receive a small "thank you" in the form of iRacing credits!

While 15 sim racers who participated in all of the anniversary series will be picked to receive 1000 iRacing credits, all memberships that are active as of August 26th will have a nice, small present by iRacing: Depending on when they first joined the service, they are going to receive up to 15$ in iRacing credits "as a thank you to our fantastic members", as Associate Producer Greg West states in a forum post.
The amount of credits is determined by the length of a membership: Each full year that has passed since an iRacing membership first started is worth 1$, which is also the minimum for any active members - "even if you created you account on August 25th of this year", West explains. Conversely, the maximum amount is 15$ for those who joined in 2008.
Memberships do not have to be continuous, meaning that if you first signed up with iRacing in June 2010, then took a long break and only got back into the sim in 2022, for example, you will still receive 13$ worth of iRacing credits. Should you have an old account floating around, it might be worth dusting off ahead of August 26th. Steam memberships are also included in the giveaway.
