1,200+ free track maps

Hello Reader,
Traditional track maps are great, but they only show you the corners.
What you really want to know is how you should drive each one:
It's not that you can't drive fast.
It's that the fastest option isn't always obvious.
Hopefully, this week's “article” gives you a few new ideas.
As you may know, I've been building Lap Time Finder, a tool to automagically analyse your data.
Part of that has involved building a lap simulator.
To test the sim, I let it drive millions of laps across 1,200+ tracks.
Today... I'm (tentatively!) giving you access to what it did.
Gulp!
The lines and guidance it gives you are A SUGGESTION.
Your car is different, the track is idealised, the driver is really (really) good... (and several other caveats below!)
So, don't treat what this says as "right" or "wrong".
Treat the lines and guidance as a talking point.
A starting point for a track you've never driven.
Or, an opinionated alternative, to compare with what you already do.
Simply login and search for your track in the vault here 👇:

Enjoy 😊
Good luck staying ahead of the curve,

I made these for you, but they're free for anyone.
Feel free to share them with your friends and groups.
Plus, the online versions, have an hourly weather forecast, see here: 👇

In Lap Time Finder, I replace the generic car with your car.
More on THAT coming soon...

This week: Testing on old tyres – Worth it or waste of time? Hello Reader, You might hear people in the paddock declare that testing on old tyres is a complete waste of time. But is it? This might be fine for them but what if you don't have an unlimited budget for tyres, care somewhat for the environment and/or find yourself restricted by series regulation? You know that new tyres will give you more grip and that they will perform differently. But will the information gathered on old tyres be...
Ahead of the Curve This week: Understeer defined | Master Your Tyres update "ed" Two letters that I hope will change your relationship with understeer and oversteer for ever. As you well know Reader, these at two terms that get used with abandon in the paddock. Everyone has a strong view on what they mean. My concern, is that not everyone has the same view! Firstly, I totally acknowledge the simple versions that include seeing trees (or not!) and expletives (describing the front or back of...
Ahead of the Curve This week: Your prioritises | Mass effect on Accel | Updated How-to Ever get the feeling your car's job list seems never-ending, Reader? As soon as you tick off one job, another five appear! It is so hard to prioritise... ...even worse, when members of your team have different opinions on what is critical (or not)! Here is how you can make this easier - with Maths! What is more important... Now? A team I work with asked me to help add a little objectivity to a "discussion"...
