Current iRacers -- and everyone ... please see my post at this link -- where I'd like to begin getting feedback.

in regards to Steve Myer's comment:

We have a few massive projects we are currently working on that will not be ready for the next major build, but one is worth mentioning now. We are deep into development on bringing private leagues to our service in a way that will hopefully maintain the integrity of the overall service. I will focus a blog post on this topic further down the road when we are prepared to reveal more details on how this will work, but I think we are well on the way to adding an exciting new feature to our service.

I just sat it on the iRacing chat w/ Dave K and John Henry and the league stuff is coming very soon!

Question..What will be the league structure and how will it affect the service?
The idea is currently that anyone will be able to administer a league, and the admin will be charged a nominal fee, to keep the numbers reasonable. The membership will be limited to 30 or so drivers, so sessions can run for the most part without splits. Also, the track schedule will have to follow one of the Official Series schedules, but any car can be chosen by the admin. And one more thing, no iRating, or SR effects during league races. Drivers will only be able to participate in one league race a week, although in any league that they have been invited to

That sounds reasonable. This way it should not dilute the current system much since you will still have to run in the open series to get any SR or iRating boost.

Excellent -- can't wait to hear more!

Sounds perfect to me!
