Why drivers choose it • Fast setup: One tap to begin; optional track sketch on the map when you need a defined circuit. • Automatic lap timing: Crossing the line starts the clock; your lap list, best lap, and sectors stay organized. • Live session view: Follow current lap, best lap, speed context, and a simple track map while you’re on track. • Leaderboards: Compare yourself on saved tracks with filters for kart, car, and bike—daily, weekly, or overall. • Progressive depth: Start with pure lap times and rankings; grow into comparisons and insights as you improve. Who it’s for Weekend karters, track-day enthusiasts, riders on technical circuits, and anyone who wants consistent lap data without carrying extra hardware first. Privacy & data Designed so your sessions stay useful to you first—share when you want, keep detail when you don’t. Requirements GPS works best with a clear view of the sky. Lap accuracy depends on GPS quality and how precisely your start/finish is defined. Download Mychron Telemetry, hit start, and turn every outing into measurable progress.
