This isn't just "another racing series." This is an annual championship with a clear prize at stake: the grand prize is a full-fledged Sim Rig that the winner will take home. Every two weeks—a new stage, new points, a new chance to move up. And yes, there will be prizes throughout the season, not just for "1st place."
GRAND PRIZE: A Sim Rig Goes to the Winner
The year-end Grand Final in early January awards the trophies. The top prize is a home simulator rig. Not a "discount," not "merch," not a "pat on the back," but a real piece of hardware you can set up at home and drive on every single day.
WHO CAN PARTICIPATE: Only those "in the circle"
The championship has a simple filter: races are for those actually connected to Maxwell Sim Racing.
Option 1: An active Membership (grants priority and a guaranteed slot in Race Week).
Option 2: A client who owns a home sim rig assembled by Maxwell (same race access via client status).

This is deliberate: the championship isn't a random mass event, but a club season with proper organization, reserved slots, and accountability.
HOW IT WORKS: Easy to understand, exciting to anticipate
Every 2 weeks is one stage:
Week 1: Hotlap – set the best time on a fixed combo (car/track/conditions).
Week 2: Race Week – races in splits of 8 drivers, so even with 40–60+ participants, everyone actually gets to start and compete within their group.

4 SEASONS PER YEAR: Different Cars – Different Prizes

An easy entry point, close competition, the first trophies, and warming up for the championship.

Each 3-month season awards separate prizes for the Top 3, plus categories like Clean Driver / Most Improved / Best Rookie, so motivation isn't just for those consistently on the podium.
SPONSORS AND "EXTRAS": Not Just Sim Hardware
Prizes won't be limited to sim parts and subscriptions. We're currently working with sponsors so winners and runners-up get items that smell like real motorsport: a track day in a real race car, automotive seats, gift certificates, merch, bonus hours, partner prizes. The list will grow as confirmations come in – and this is exactly what makes the season an "event," not just a spreadsheet.
WHY IT PAYS TO STAY IN THE SEASON ALL YEAR
Because the championship maintains interest on three levels:
- The big final with the Sim Rig – the main draw.
- Mid-season prizes every 2–3 months – constant incentive.
- Different car classes – the feeling that the year doesn't repeat but evolves.
