All you need to do is go to your account section of the member site, click 'Renew My Subscription', choose your subscription length and finally click 'renew early'.

SMH I just don't get the WOW alternative to sim racing. I rather play the sims I actually own that have been bought and paid for.

scgt1 you've obviously never tried it.

scgt1 you've obviously never tried it.

Or maybe he's like I am and has tried it (multiple times actually) and isn't impressed?

If I'm going to pay in perpetuity for a sim, it has to do better than this. I'm happy you like it, more power to you. But I'm in the same boat as scgt1. I'd rather load up rFactor or AC, both of which I bought and paid for once.

I guess the days of $50 annual sub specials are over? I have not renewed as of yet because I've been trying to wait it out for a good price...

Are you more casual and a time trial racer? iRacing is starting to get better for Time Trials and Seasonal Leaderboards but definitely not worth it if you casually race. However, the head to head racing/racecraft is by far the best outside of leagues.

Have never tried it. The retarded subscription steers me away from it. Now if it had a one time cost like every other sim out (other then RaceRoom with it's micro transactions) I would be intrigued to purchase. I don't have enough time in my life to justify a monthly cost being forked out to something I will never own. I really wish game companies would go back to the drawing board and stop this sub service and micro transaction junk. I understand micro transactions for FTP titles so the companies stay in business but games you pay for should be just that "PAID FOR" It's the sheep that keep paying for things like this that allow companies to keep getting away with it and also proves to other game designers/companies/publishers (How ever you want to refer to them and who ever pulls the monetary strings in said organization) that unfortunately the PTP model works and works well.

Don't get me wrong it may be a great game or it may not as everything I have seen about it in the past is pretty split 50/50 but I for one have plenty of other sims to play. Sure maybe I have to start a different game to play said particular car class. If this saves me $50-$100+ for a sub to just start a new game I'm all for it. If all you play is sim games and you have a whole dedicated setup with a racing seat and wrap around monitor setup then this type of thing is probably for you. I play a variety of games and only play 3-4 times a week for 3-4 hours each time if that. To fork out this kind of dough for that amount of time would be completely stupid.

Side note there is one FTP game that I have sunk a ton of money into which is MWO. I grew up playing the IP and when MS made the dumbest decision ever and axed the production of it a part of my childhood died. When IGP/Paranah games got the licensing rights I was stoked to be playing it again and in modern graphics no doubt. This is and will be the only FTP game I sink money into.

Although since they made the dumbest decision ever and changed the skill trees I haven't given them a dime. I've spent 3 years working on my mechs for them to wipe all those settings out to where you have to redo everything. MEH. Actually I haven't taken a chance to get back into this one either since they announced it was coming up. Considering it completely changes the mechanics of the whole game and causes you to start over again.

That's your prerogative. One thing to consider though is the community around iRacing is amazing and you don't have to worry about idiots who want to intentionally ruin everyone else's experience in PUGs.
