Yeah seem like the cheap route is to just stay in that little Mazda forever til you hit higher class. The expensive option though would be to try to buy all the tracks for a season per Class from what I'm seeing
I play a lot of games so I plan to just be casual and stick to this nvidia cup.
Biggest advice I can offer is skip D Class completely if you want to.... If you Mazda MX5's until D4.0 you can buy a C class car and use that to get to C Class license to complete your minimum races as I said. If I knew that I would've saved so much money at the start instead of buying the Mustang which I didn't really want.... I've got 100% content now anyway so it doesn't matter but initially iRacing can be very expensive.

- from forums...Yes. Without any D class content you have no option but to run official Rookie races (or official qual or TT sessions) if you want to gain SR. Once you hit 4.0 you are able to race in C class series even though you don't have the MPR to actually become a C class racer yet.
The hard parts are (a) getting up to SR 4.0 in Rookie races, especially now the tyre models have been tweaked and (b) staying above 4.0 while doing 4 races or TT sessions in C class content in order to satisfy the MPR requirement. Once that's done, you're C (after a little delay for the stats to catch up).
Of course you could use TT sessions to get your SR above 4.0 rather than join Rookie races, but it can take a looooong time to gain anything significant because of the 0.35 SR multiplier.
If you use the GP Wire promo code you will get the F1 + Zandvoort and Silverstone plus all the basic content with your subscription.(this the one I used)Im a little bit confused . The website says 1 time fee of 11.95 per car o track. Does each new car and new track cost 11.95 each?? Thats sounds expensive. Theres really only a few cars I really want in this game. The HPD arx, the Corvette, The Ford GT, and the Williams F1.
and maybe a Miata.
would that cost me 60$?

After that just buy the cars you want as you progress trough the licenses. now is even better because you only need to buy the car you want to use to run in a series instead of buying all cars that run in that particular series.
Knowing what I know now, I'd either use the 1 year code or the GP wire code.
Get out of rookie license, buy the Mustang, get out of D, run Grand Am with the Mustang and the track you gonna use that week, get out of C and buy either the Ford/Vette/ARX and enjoy iRacing! When you get to A license you'll already have the F1 car!
Costs are minimized and fun maximized! Offcourse you're gonna want to buy some other cars like the riley DP, Dallara, Star Mazda and the McLaren MP4-12C GT3 when it comes out but you can do that later.
most definitely! right now Bank of America is being a 🤬 with my account......
