On June 4, 2019, iRacing’s 2019 Season 3 build dropped and made it official: short course off‑road racing had arrived. The launch included three trucks—the rear‑wheel‑drive Pro 2, the all‑wheel‑drive Pro 4, and the entry‑level Pro 2 Lite—plus a pair of purpose‑built venues.
From the first laps it was clear this wasn’t a simple reskin. Long‑travel suspension, tall jumps, and rhythm sections demanded a new driving approach. Pitch control mattered, throttle modulation mattered, and learning to land straight mattered most of all.
iRacing shipped baseline setups and structured series to shorten the learning curve. Rookies could jump into Pro 2 Lite, while experienced dirt racers gravitated to Pro 2 for balance or Pro 4 for sheer traction and aggression.
What’s included at launch: three truck classes, two tracks, proper dirt physics tuned for jumps and whoops, and full support in official series with sensible license placement.
