Reachability by region

Each region runs its own request from a different part of the world. A service can be up for one continent and down for another, which is usually the first sign of a routing or CDN problem.

What iRacing does

iRacing is a subscription racing simulator where every session runs on the company's servers, with official races scheduled around the clock and results feeding a persistent rating. Because sessions, car and track ownership, and ratings are all held server-side, the simulator is close to unusable whenever the service is unreachable.

What an outage looks like

The membership site fails to load or sign-in hangs, and the simulator cannot launch a session because it cannot register the entry. Drivers already in a session sometimes finish it while joining anything new fails. Test and practice sessions cannot be created, and results or rating updates from completed races may post late.

What to do about it

Check status.iracing.com, then separate an incident from scheduled work, since iRacing takes the service down deliberately to deploy each season's build and announces those windows in advance rather than them being faults. If a race was affected mid-session, the official support route is the way to raise it once the service returns.

Is it down for everyone, or just you?

If this page says iRacing is up but it is not loading for you, the problem is between you and them. Run a check against any URL from up to 17 cities across three regions to find out where it breaks.

iRacing outage FAQ

Is iRacing down or is it season build maintenance?
Build deployments are planned and announced ahead of time, run for hours rather than minutes, and land at predictable points in the season calendar. An unannounced failure outside those windows is an incident. The status page and the official announcements distinguish the two, and the difference decides whether waiting is worthwhile.
Will I lose rating if I am disconnected during an outage?
A disconnection mid-race is normally recorded as it happened, which can cost both safety rating and iRating. Where a service-side fault caused it, the official support route exists to have the result reviewed. Raising it through that channel with the session details is more effective than posting on a forum.
Can I practise offline while iRacing is down?
No. The simulator authenticates and loads content through the service, so there is no offline mode to fall back on, unlike simulators shipping a local career mode. That server-side design is what keeps the rating system consistent, and it is also why an outage stops all use rather than only multiplayer racing.
Do my cars and tracks stay purchased after an outage?
Yes. Ownership is recorded against the account rather than in the local installation, so it reappears intact once the service returns. If content looks missing immediately after an outage, signing out and back in usually refreshes the entitlement list rather than indicating anything was actually lost.

How we measure this

  • We request iRacing's public endpoint every 6 hours from Fly.io regions across six continents — the most recent check ran from 8 of them.
  • A region counts as down only when it gets no usable HTTP response. A 403 or 429 means the origin answered and refused us, which we report as blocked, never as an outage.
  • A single failing region is treated as probe noise. We only change the verdict when two consecutive cycles agree.
  • Response times average only the regions that actually served the page, so a timeout never inflates the number.
  • Where iRacing publishes an official status feed we read it too. An all-clear from the vendor can soften an unconfirmed degradation; a vendor-declared outage only worsens our verdict when our own checks corroborate it.
