Race the iRacing.com Indy 500 this Weekend

Saturday May 29th the green flag will drop for the inaugural iRacing.com Indy 500. You can be part of this incredible event too. Open to all iRacing.com members, the iRacing.com Indy 500 starts at 12 noon ET (16:00 GMT).

Qualifying has already begun and takes place every hour, on the half hour, right up until race time on Saturday, and unlike the real Indy 500 you have zero chance of being bumped from the starting grid. The iRacing.com Indy 500 will accommodate everyone who wants to race by splitting the fields based on qualifying times with a maximum of 33 drivers in each race, so you’ll be racing people of similar skill. As of this afternoon, we have already had over 300 racers qualify and it is sure to grow to thousands before the race starts on Saturday.
