Node.js mcp server for iRacing data api
Most developer tooling work still happens through a UI a human drives. IRacing 🐎 MCP server moves it into the conversation instead. Node.js mcp server for iRacing data api.
A Node.js Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides seamless access to iRacing's racing simulation data API. This project serves as both a standalone CLI tool and an MCP server for AI assistant integration.
The server publishes 7 tools. What each one is for:
login — Authenticate with iRacingget_members_profile — Get member profile dataget_team — Retrieve team informationget_member_recap — Get season recap dataget_member_career — Get career statisticsdriver_lookup — Search for driversPrerequisites — The Prerequisites tool exposed by this serverSetup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.
Configuration is passed through the environment: COOKIE_JAR, EMAIL, API_KEY. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. IRacing 🐎's toolset — login, get_members_profile, get_team and 4 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by emilioSp; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
