What kind of racing calculator is RaceLineCalc?
RaceLineCalc is a motorsport calculator for track geometry, racing lines, speed, acceleration, braking, and lap times. It does not calculate fuel consumption, pit strategy, race odds, or betting returns.
Does RaceLineCalc calculate the optimal racing line?
Yes. The min-time solver calculates a time-efficient racing trajectory for the track geometry, physical model, and parameters you provide. The current calculation uses a calibrated flat 2D track model.
Can I use RaceLineCalc for karting tracks?
Yes. Import indoor, outdoor, rental-kart, or custom circuit images, calibrate the scale, trace the track, and calculate the racing line.
Does RaceLineCalc support motorcycles?
Yes. The motorcycle model has bike-specific presets and parameters and calculates speed, acceleration, braking, and lean angle.
Does it calculate speed and lap time?
Yes. Completed runs include calculated lap time, speed, acceleration, and braking. The values come from the selected physical model and track geometry.
Does RaceLineCalc require an internet connection or account?
Core project editing and local calculation do not require an account or project upload. Store purchases, advertising, and external links may require internet access.
Which real-world effects are outside the 2D model?
The current flat 2D model covers track geometry and selected vehicle parameters. Elevation, jumps, camber, changing grip, surface condition, weather, traffic, and driver choices remain outside its scope.
RaceLineCalc is a local-first race trajectory optimization tool: a racing line calculator, track analyzer, lap time calculator, and minimum-time trajectory optimizer in one app. It supports image-based track analysis, optimal racing line calculation, speed-profile analysis, braking-point estimation, vehicle-model comparison, and minimum-lap-time studies on a calibrated flat 2D track.
