wantec VR Racing Simulator League – 2026 Season

Get ready for high-speed action every week at wantec VR! Our 2026 Racing Simulator League, powered by RaceRoom Racing Experience, takes place on our 12 professional-grade simulators. Whether you’re a returning champion from 2025 or completely new to sim racing, this league offers fair, thrilling, and competitive racing for all levels. Chase monthly trophies, climb the leaderboard, and fight for the title of 2026 Yearly Champion!

Two Classes – Fair Racing for Every Skill Level

We run two separate classes so everyone races against drivers of similar ability:

Class A – Advanced / Competitive

The top tier for experienced racers who want maximum intensity.
All top performers from our 2025 season automatically qualify to start here.
Class A is capped at 20 drivers to ensure full, competitive grids and intense battles.
No driving aids – pure skill, precision, and strategy required.
Returning 2025 A-Class racers: secure your spot early – places are limited!

Class B – Beginner to Intermediate

The ideal starting point if you’re new or still building confidence.
Driving aids (traction control, ABS, etc.) are enabled to help you learn and enjoy the experience.

Monthly Promotion & Relegation:
The top 2–3 drivers in Class B move up to Class A at the end of each month, while the bottom 2–3 in Class A drop to Class B.
This system keeps races competitive and rewards improvement every single month.

New Riders:
Everyone starts in Class B. After your first race (or a few), your performance (lap times + results) may qualify you for promotion to Class A if you’re showing strong pace. The system ensures you’re always racing at the right level – with plenty of room to grow.
