Back To Business in Week 7 iRacing

We move into iRacing week 7 and we help you get out of rookie ovals.

How did you all get on in the iRacing Spa 24-hour special event over the weekend? We hope you enjoyed the setups and lap guides and they made a difference to your race.

We are back to our weekly schedule of iRacing content in week 7 and without a special event to prepare for we can all hone in on our craft to attack this week without distractions. Spa Francorchamps still features in 3 of our main series this week as well.
