What Is Simdeck?
Simdeck started as a cleaner iRacing calendar. The original goal was simple: one place to view, filter, and organize the full official series list without jumping between tabs and cross-referencing spreadsheets. Since then, the platform has grown into a much broader tool, covering weekly performance data, team management, private championships, driver profiles, and community rig builds.
The project comes from Pablo Diz and Pablo Cabrera, two Spanish sim racers who built it in their spare time because they kept running into the same frustrations every iRacer deals with during season prep. There are no ads, no tracking, and no subscription wall. It is a community tool built by people who actually use it.
The Calendar: Your iRacing Season Planner Starting Point
The calendar is still where most drivers start, and it holds up well. The filter system is the main improvement over the native iRacing schedule view. You can narrow down the full series list by license class, car type, and track. So instead of scanning through a hundred entries to find the GT3 race running your owned track this week, you get there in three clicks.
You can save favorite series and filter by owned content, which removes a lot of friction when deciding whether a given race week is worth your time. Because iRacing is a paid content ecosystem, the question of whether you own the track or car comes up constantly. Having that filter built directly into the schedule view is a small detail that makes a real difference in practice.
The mobile experience is also notably good. The full calendar works cleanly on a phone, including filters and favorites. Checking upcoming session times from the couch is a normal use case, and most scheduling tools treat mobile as an afterthought. Simdeck does not.
iRacing Season Planner Data: Leaderboards and Weekly Performance
Once you are past the calendar, Simdeck goes several layers deeper. The weekly leaderboard pulls in qualifying times, race pace data, Balance of Performance information, and the car distribution for each combination. This gives you a real read on the competitive window before you have run a single practice lap.
Knowing where the fast times sit and which cars are getting results is useful pre-race prep. The BOP breakdown is particularly helpful in GT3 or multi-class series where your car choice actually matters. Additionally, seeing the car distribution tells you whether the meta has shifted in a given week, which is information that used to require hunting across Discord servers and forum threads. Now it is right there next to the schedule.
Team Management
Team management covers the coordination layer for endurance and league racing. You can build a team page, manage driver availability, schedule stints, take driver votes, and share files, all from one organized space.
During longer events, the live stint view tracks who is in the car and when each driver rotates in, updating in real time. If you have run a Spa 24-hour event or a 12-hour endurance race with a full team coordinating over Discord, you already know that the group chat coordination alone can feel like a second job. The stint management tool gives that coordination structure, so your team chat can focus on actual race decisions rather than logistics.
You can also set up notifications for team events and race starts, which helps when you are racing across time zones with drivers who are not always watching the same group chat. The Discord integration adds another layer for teams that already run their communication there.
Championships and Leagues
Running a private championship or league? Simdeck handles that too. You can set up a full league with a custom calendar, registration pages, driver standings, and a public-facing championship page. The standings update automatically after each race, which removes the weekly spreadsheet work that most iRacing league admins do by hand. For context on how iRacing itself has expanded league tools, iRacing recently added custom class regulations for multi-class league racing.
The public championship pages are a particularly clean feature. Your league gets its own page that other drivers can find, browse the schedule, and register from directly. That is a step up from the standard approach of pasting a spreadsheet link into a Discord announcement and hoping people find it. It also gives your championship a more visible presence for recruiting drivers who are not already in your network.
Community Builds and Tools
Simdeck also covers the community and gear side of sim racing. The builds section lets drivers share their full rig setup and browse what other iRacers are running. There is also a gear statistics view showing what equipment is most common across the platform, which is useful when you are weighing hardware options and want real usage data rather than a sponsored review.
Driver profiles show iRating, safety rating, recent results, team membership, and rig info in one place. The driver comparator tool lets you pull two profiles side by side for a direct stats comparison, which is useful for team managers assessing candidates or curious drivers checking where they stand relative to someone they raced last week.
The tools section includes a FOV calculator, the driver comparator, and a world map of all iRacing tracks. The FOV calculator is worth calling out specifically. Getting your field of view right in a sim directly affects how distances read on track, which has a real impact on braking points. Most sim racers either guess at it or copy a number from an old forum post. A dedicated calculator fixes that in two minutes.
Why the iRacing Season Planner Is Worth Trying Now
Simdeck is in public beta. Every feature, including the calendar, leaderboards, team management, championships, builds, and tools, is completely unlocked and free. No credit card and no trial period. Just create an account and start using it.
The team has said paid plans will come after the beta ends, but a free tier will remain, and nothing built during the beta gets deleted. So if you set up your team or your league now, your data stays with you when pricing eventually comes in. For iRacers who are building out their season, learning which series fit their license and car collection, or trying to coordinate team endurance racing without six different group chats, Simdeck is a free tool that is worth adding to your workflow.
You can browse the Season 3 calendar on Simdeck without even creating an account. An account is free and unlocks the full feature set including team pages, leaderboard tracking, and championship management.
