Hi Guys, I'm interested in what web based software there is out there to track and store results from meetings, trackdays, qualifying etc for individuals.

For instance, how do you know what your best time is for a circuit, perhaps for one of your cars (or ever), before it had some upgrades (recorded) and since? Is there a quick way to see the classifications at all your meetings in any of the series you complete in? Average position, average time down on fastest laps across laps, meetings, seasons etc.

After a bit of research, Mylaps looks like the only contender are there others? What are the good features and drawbacks? Doesn't look like you can link videos, telemetry and pictures etc. or do much analysis, but maybe you can with the paid version does anyone know?


I think surely the the same information plus extra could be used by race organisers for a management tool - but that's another topic. I'm a software engineer by trade and fancy a "hobby" you see....plus I want to look at my own progress!

If you think there's plenty of tools with all the features everyone could need / or not, any feedback would be much appreciated.

Cheers in advance!

TSL timing has PDFs of official timing for all events in the UK, should have all the info you need timing wise.

Cheers.not really geared up for reporting I guess for individual racers.question is,is it because nobody wants it or because nobody knows they want it yet? In the early days it could just work as a profile page - click here to see how I've been getting on,or my report of brands etc.

Cheers! To be more specific, I'm not looking at performance analysis over single laps - ther's got to be plemty that do that (Motec for one I've used). More a record to pull reports on yourself, and compare you with others on a track with equivelant machinery.
