ISRA Launches F1 Grand Prix Series!

Welcome to the Grand Prix Championship! Over the past several months a lot work has been put into developing a highly competitive Grand Prix experience. Utilizing the most technically advanced vehicle in the iRacing line-up, the FW31, the International Sim Racing Association wants to invite you to join the GPC as we start the inaugural season. Starting June 6th the GPC begins pre-season testing. June 20th marks the official start to the season with the Australian Grand Prix to be held at the picturesque Philip Island Circuit.

Wednesday nights.
FULL length GP races.
Trophies for championship winners.
Team championship
Server opens: 7:00pm EST
Qualifying: 9:00pm
Race: 9:25pm 

As with real world Formula One racing, team work is paramount in delivering the strongest results possible from race to race. The GPC wants to emulate that thinking. Create a team with a friend or we’ll pair you up on a team. Either way working with your teammate is the only way you will be able to take home the Team Championship trophy and all the glory that goes with it!

You will be able to sign up for the series by going to www.israleague.com/series If the signup is not yet available, please keep checking back, it will be available in the coming hours today (05/31/12).

There is also a rule book that accompanies this series, which will be posted in the Rulebook section under the general ISRA forum. We strongly recommend that all drivers read through this, there are a few new rules that drivers may not be used to seeing (e.g. Car liveries, and passing rules).

We also ask that once you sign up for the series you send a quick email to: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it (or a PM to Ryan Cornes or Anthony Muniz) that has your team name and the two drivers on the team. Please make sure to read the rule book on Team Liveries. If you do not have a team, you can sign up to be randomly assigned with another driver and create your team that way. Also, drivers may run without a team and only compete in the driver's championship, but we strongly suggest starting a team, as they may play an even bigger part in this series in the future. Plus, where's the fun in only competing in one championship?!?

In summary, we are very excited to bring back the F1 Grand Prix racing experience to ISRA. The Williams F1 car is great to drive, and we think that there will be some great racing in this series.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact Ryan or Anthony Muniz ANYTIME through the PM system here in the forums, or preferably email:  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

Thank you for your time and we hope you enjoy the Grand Prix Championship!
