It is open to anyone and there is no cost to participate. You also do not have to be a member of BMW CCA to participate. We will use popular iRacing as our sim racing platform. We are open to all skill levels but we do require some experience\, basic understanding of racing\, and skills as explained in requirements section. We started this program in early 2020\, and we host races all year around (4 seasons\, 8-10 race weeks per season). We have dozens of enthusiastic drivers all over the country who have steadily improved over the years\, so come join and race with us! \nWhy should you join and how is different than other leagues? – first and foremost\, we focus on skill development. Almost all of our races are fixed setup in order to emphasize driver skill development rather than spending time “tuning” the car. We also strive to drive squeaky clean in this league\, just like real club and vintage racing series\, we do not condone racing contacts or incidents. We do have pretty tight rules (and penalty system) to enforce this priority. In order to accelerate your skill development\, we also have data analysis sessions\, replay peer reviews\, additional practice nights\, and most importantly friendly drivers who are willing to help out with any issues you may have (equipment setup\, car painting\, driving technique\, etc.). Many of our drivers have experienced positive and accelerated learning by participating in this league and have enjoyed comraderies over the years. \nHow to join this league: \n\nOnce you have met the basic requirements below and have read and understood our rules and penalty system\, you can apply to join the league.\n\nNew members are accepted up to Tuesday of each week.  We do not accept new applicants on official race day on Thursday.\n\nThere are 2 steps required to participate in this league:\n\n\n\n\nPlease search and apply under BMW CCA NCC League in iRacing:\n\n\n\nYou must have –\n\nRoad racing license class of D or higher\,\nSafety rating (SR) of 2.50 or higher\, AND\niRating of 1350 or higher to be accepted into the league\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDiscord channel link will be sent out and you must acknowledge certain channel within Discord to participate in league sessions.\n\n\n\nREQUIREMENTS \nSoftware \n\nWe (exclusively) use iRacing as our simulated racing program.

SUMMARY:NCC Fall 2024 Sim Racing Series #14
DESCRIPTION:BMW CCA NCC Sim Racing Program – 2024 Season: \n  \nINTRODUCTION \nWhat is this program about? – This is a simulated racing league offered by BMW CCA National Capital Chapter (NCC). It is open to anyone and there is no cost to participate. You also do not have to be a member of BMW CCA to participate. We will use popular iRacing as our sim racing platform. We are open to all skill levels but we do require some experience\, basic understanding of racing\, and skills as explained in requirements section. We started this program in early 2020\, and we host races all year around (4 seasons\, 8-10 race weeks per season). We have dozens of enthusiastic drivers all over the country who have steadily improved over the years\, so come join and race with us! \nWhy should you join and how is different than other leagues? – first and foremost\, we focus on skill development. Almost all of our races are fixed setup in order to emphasize driver skill development rather than spending time “tuning” the car. We also strive to drive squeaky clean in this league\, just like real club and vintage racing series\, we do not condone racing contacts or incidents. We do have pretty tight rules (and penalty system) to enforce this priority. In order to accelerate your skill development\, we also have data analysis sessions\, replay peer reviews\, additional practice nights\, and most importantly friendly drivers who are willing to help out with any issues you may have (equipment setup\, car painting\, driving technique\, etc.). Many of our drivers have experienced positive and accelerated learning by participating in this league and have enjoyed comraderies over the years. \nHow to join this league: \n\nOnce you have met the basic requirements below and have read and understood our rules and penalty system\, you can apply to join the league.\n\nNew members are accepted up to Tuesday of each week.  We do not accept new applicants on official race day on Thursday.\n\nThere are 2 steps required to participate in this league:\n\n\n\n\nPlease search and apply under BMW CCA NCC League in iRacing:\n\n\n\nYou must have –\n\nRoad racing license class of D or higher\,\nSafety rating (SR) of 2.50 or higher\, AND\niRating of 1350 or higher to be accepted into the league\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDiscord channel link will be sent out and you must acknowledge certain channel within Discord to participate in league sessions.\n\n\n\nREQUIREMENTS \nSoftware \n\nWe (exclusively) use iRacing as our simulated racing program.
