TrackNinja is a race car data app designed to help grassroots drivers extract better on-track performance from their track days and race weekends through data input and analysis. Use our Data Garage to input any metrics about your vehicle from setup numbers, aftermarket parts, and tire sets. Keep track of cold and hot pit data throughout a weekend or across a season and visualize what lap time gains were made from any setup changes through the GPS Lap Timer.

As you come off the track, enter your Hot Pit Data to gather accurate information about how the vehicle performed. Adjust your setup, update the Data Garage, and hit the track again.
