FYI: "Test Car of Track" got broken with the update this week. Until there's patch you can't use this option with nsome series (might be just the Fixed series).

Congrats on the wins!
I've never run the Cup but I can't see myself ever returning to SS. I was bored and ran one yesterday. There were at least two guys (I checked the profiles) who had just signed up and this was their first race. Clearly they didn't practice before jumping in. Mayhem. Then some tool nerfed me when I got off the throttle to avoid two cars ahead of me that were bumping hard.
You'll also find that as a D your SR will increase very slowly in the rookie SS races. Like +0.10 for a clean race if you're lucky. I got several +0.00 races with just a single 2x contact. I used the D-class iRacing NASCAR National Series to advance. Longer races mean more SR gain.

Oh I just remembered... Carb Cup is a no-iRating, no-SR series. Risk-free racing but it won't help you advance.
Check the series descriptions carefully before buying cars and tracks because there's a few series like that. In general, if you see "Fun" in the title it's not counting towards your ratings.
I should've mentioned... the D-class races are so much cleaner than SS. There's always the odd doofus in the field but in general, hugely more mature racing.

Ya..I dontt usually have issue with the street stocks..imm always running the outside line and it works to keep me out of trouble due to starting up front. Guess I gotta find 100 bucks for the fixed cup series..eesh

What I did is get the car and one track that butted up (in the schedule) against another track I already had (Charlotte) then drove the hell out of those for the two weeks. Got to C easily.

Nice one! Do your MPR and you'll be in the trucks. Maybe we'll get in a split together!
