The next wave of invites will be to those registered on the website, and
will take place very soon (within days) according to iRacing staff.

Make sure you are registered!

Cheers

I'm no fool. All these invites are just a front to get people hooked on the
game so they will get a subscription. The invitiation system is just to
make you think you are "special" but in reality you are just another sack
of coins to count.

That's obvious.  But things have to be done in waves, else all would blow
up, getting to hard to handle.

Not quite emnpty. I am thinking of buying Grid so there must be a few drops
of hope left in my glass. Although, I expect Grid will disappoint me once I
get beyond the cool graphics. I buy games just so I can lambaste them and
no other reason. I get more fun out of winding people up on usenet and web
forums than playing games anyway.
Larry - 07 Jul 2008 21:58 GMT
For the price of Grid you could get 2 or 3 months of iRacing :)

I could but no one has *invited* me to join and I don't like the idea of
using my real name. I take my privacy seriously.

So a few sim racers will know your real name, big deal! I'm surprised you're
brave enough to get out of fecking bed, let alone connect your PC to the
internet!

   Well now it makes sense - since you're an ill mannered paranoid f.cking 
idiot, you need to keep an eye out for the psychos who are drawn to the
likes of you like a magnet!

Nah, they target the weak, which would be you.

So might be the guy across the street or one of the other passengers on my
train in the morning. Clearly you must be worried about crashing someone out
of a race and them tracing and killing you. This is an irrational fear. In
truth, we don't want your sort in iRacing anyway, so stay away.

Difference is that those people don't know your name, duh!

They need to know your name before they can attack you?

We are talking stalking and not being attacked on a train. Do keep up.

Your fear is irrational. Mind, you probably believe the moon landings were
faked.

And you need to do some research on cyber bullying.

   Yeah? Why's that?

They are invitations to subscribe. It may seem a bit cunning but luckily
you will have seen through their plan to make you subscribe when the
invitations mentions the subscribe word...

I have to ask to be invited just to give them my money? Weird strategy but
it just may work for them.

Yea, and you can only enter the pitstop if invited to do so. Oh wait, there
are no pitstops.

Yeah it should be free. Free sim-racing is a basic human right, after all.

If you didn't get the email let your sponsor know.  There are many, many
(many) new invitee's online so I know a huge batch went out.

           You are so wrong. You are such a  fool . If you don't want
to pay to race in a structured environment that is your privilege. I
do believe the invitation system was to make sure their system was up
to speed and could handle it. Some "special" people actually did get
some benefit from participating in the beta phase.
           As far as iRacing counting coins I believe they do need to
eventually make a profit for the sake of survival. I apologize for
wasting bandwidth but some of these guys I JUST CAN'T TAKE.
