Compare in detail
Racey vs SimGrid
SimGrid is a large multi-sim marketplace where drivers join events and leagues hosted on SimGrid's own platform. Racey is software for running your own branded league — most often on iRacing — with your own pages, scoring, stewarding and direct Stripe entry fees. If you want to plug into an existing community, SimGrid is strong; if you want to own and operate your league, that is what Racey is built for.
Racey vs Xtreme Scoring
Xtreme Scoring is the closest direct analog to Racey: a web-based iRacing league platform with strong, customizable scoring and live race control. The differences are at the edges — Racey adds AI-assisted/blind stewarding, integrated zero-commission Stripe entry fees, and CSV import for non-iRacing sims.
Racey vs iRLeagueManager
iRLeagueManager is a free, open-source tool for iRacing leagues with schedule planning, results, standings and a built-in stewarding/incident-review system — which you self-host. Racey is a hosted platform: no server to run, plus AI-assisted stewarding, integrated payments and CSV import for other sims.
Racey vs SimRacing.GP
SimRacing.GP is a free platform for creating multi-sim championships, with automatic dedicated-server launching and real-time standings — strongest for dedicated-server titles like ACC and Automobilista 2. Racey focuses on running your own branded iRacing league with stewarding, integrated payments and your own web pages.
Racey vs a Spreadsheet (Google Sheets)
Plenty of leagues start in Google Sheets — it's free and flexible. But every result is hand-entered, every standings formula is yours to maintain, and there is no registration, no driver notifications and no Discord posting. Racey automates all of that and gives your league a real website — and it imports your existing spreadsheet so you don't lose your history.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the best software for running an iRacing league?
- There is no single tool everyone agrees on — the options split between multi-sim marketplaces (SimGrid, SimRacing.GP), dedicated iRacing tools (Xtreme Scoring), open-source self-host projects (iRLeagueManager) and spreadsheets. Racey is a hosted platform for running your own branded iRacing league: scoring, stewarding, race control, a Discord bot and direct Stripe entry fees in one account. The comparisons above break it down feature by feature.
- Is Racey free?
- Yes — and not just a starter tier. Every shipped feature is free for every league: unlimited seasons and drivers, every preset scoring system, the full stewarding suite, the Discord bot, Stripe Connect entry fees and the read API. There is no paid tier to upgrade to.
- How much does Racey cost compared with other platforms?
- Racey is free — every shipped feature, for every league. For reference, SimGrid’s organizer "Community" plans are Free, Lite €3.99/month and Pro €7.99/month (as of 2026-07-12), and SimRacing.GP is free with a paid Advanced tier. See each comparison page for sourced detail.
- Can I move my league to Racey from another platform or a spreadsheet?
- Yes. Export your results to CSV and import them through the Racey Results importer to carry over your standings and history — whether you are coming from another league platform or a Google Sheet.
- Does Racey work for sims other than iRacing?
- Yes. iRacing gets a guided results import plus manual customer-ID linking; EA F1 23/24/25 writes an in-game CSV you upload directly on PC, and every other sim works from a results spreadsheet saved as CSV through the same importer — those results drive standings and Discord posts.
