Introduction:iRacing.com is excited to announce its Premier Racing Series, the iRacing Pro Series (iPS) and theiRacing Drivers World Championships (iDWC) for 2009 and 2010, respectively. With separatecontests for the categories (Oval and Road), the iPS and iDWC include four different series andcomprise the two highest levels of iRacing competition. As opposed to the World Cup of iRacing, whichfocuses on team-style competition among iRacing’s geographically based clubs; both the iPS and iDWCare about individual racing competition and accomplishment. Each of these four series is limited tomembers who have progressed through the FIRST Competition License Program and earned a Pro-levellicense in one or both categories. And, unlike standard FIRST-sanctioned series, the iPS and iDWC serieseach follow a 39-week annual schedule.At the top of FIRST-sanctioned competition is the iRacing Drivers World Championships, whichconsists of two series, the iRacing Drivers World Championship for Ovals (iDWCO) and the iRacingDrivers World Championship for Road Racing (iDWCRR). These are iRacing’s premier individualchampionship series. The winners of these two series are, by definition, the best on-line racers in theworld for that year!The steppingstone to the iDWC is the iRacing Pro Series, which also consists of two series, the iRacingPro Series for Ovals (iPSO) and the iRacing Pro Series for Road Racing (iPSRR). These series are opento a broader spectrum of Pro-level license holders and serve as qualifying series for the iRacing DriversWorld Championships.*Note: This document assumes a basic understanding of iRacing competition, as sanctioned by FIRST,including the competition licensing program and Safety Rating system, the iRating skill measure anddivisions.

Professional Licensing:Pro LicenseAs the second-highest license level in the FIRST Competition Licensing Program, category-specific ProLicenses are awarded to the top 250 drivers in the iRacing Service based on a 70/30 weighting of skill(iRating) and safe driving (Safety Rating). Pro License promotions occur annually, before the start ofeach iPS season. Once a member earns a Pro License in a particular category, he or she shall retain thatlicense for the entire 39-week season. At the end of the season, the license expires. If the member isagain among the top 250 drivers in the category, he or she will earn a new Pro License for the comingseason. A Pro License holder may also hold a World Championship Pro License as described below. Forthe inaugural iPS, all members with a Class-C license and above will be included in the rankings for ProLicense promotion, with the top 250 earning their Pro License. Thereafter, only Class-A license holderswill be eligible for Pro License promotion.World Championship Pro LicenseAs the highest license level within the FIRST Competition Licensing Program, category-specific WorldChampionship Pro Licenses are awarded to the top 50 Pro License holders. Once a member earns aWorld Championship Pro License, he or she shall retain that license for the entire 39-week season. Atthe end of the season, the license expires.
