Week 13 vRunoffs Big Grid

vRunoffs Big Grid Info and History

The SRF community enjoys a traditional Big Grid race every Sunday of week 13 on the Iracing schedule.

Up to 60 cars join forces on track for some fun in one of the best series going. This attracts some of the best of the best from several different series within iracing,  as well as all levels of skills, so everyone enjoys the fun, clean competition.

All of the races have been broadcasted to share with the virtual enthusiasts everywhere.

A history of this event: Originally introduced and hosted by Luca Varani, as SRF Big Grid, Steve Ray and the Weekend Warriors took it over and introduced it as the vRunoffs Big Grid for the 11th race at Mid Ohio. This was to honor the actual SCCA Runoffs that includes the SRF, and was hosted at Mid Ohio for several years.  Dan Sadro took over the vRunoffs for the 26th edition and hosted thru the 30th adding a support race for more fun.  Starting with the 31st Ray Esports Racing has taken over the reins. 

With the introduction of the FV Weekend Warriors in 2021, we have added a 2nd race to the series.  2023 season 2 saw the new Ray FF1600 added as well.  We have a Weekend Warriors league for both of these cars now!!!
