## Description

GPS lap timer, telemetry analyzer, and optimal-lap coach for autocross, HPDE, track days, and time trials. Most lap timers tell you what your time was. GridLine tells you where the time went.<br><br>Import a session from RaceChrono, AIM, VBOX, TrackAddict, Apex Pro, or any CSV — or record live using just your phone&#39;s GPS — and GridLine builds a physics-constrained model of your fastest theoretical lap from your own driving. It then overlays that ideal line on a satellite map of the actual venue and shows you, foot by foot, where you&#39;re leaving time on the course.<br><br>After three runs (autocross) or three laps (track day), the lap analysis is real. You&#39;ll see the corner you under-rotated, the brake zone where you trailed too long, the straight where you lifted early. Every zone gets a time-loss number. Every session gets a coaching tip ranked by where the most time is hiding.<br><br>For autocross drivers<br>- Built for parking-lot courses, where the start and finish lines move every weekend and the official timing trap is the only number that matters.<br>- Refine your start and finish lines from your official run times — paste your score-sheet times and GridLine back-solves the line positions until the computed times match the officials. Your phone&#39;s GPS gets timing-trap accuracy, retroactively, so every delta in the rest of the analysis is anchored in reality.<br>- Drop start and finish lines anywhere on the satellite map — no pre-built track config required.<br>- Combine multiple recordings of the same event into a single session.<br>- Sessions save even before you&#39;ve placed a course — capture first, configure later.<br><br>For track day, HPDE, and time trial drivers<br>- Per-zone time-loss breakdown. The course is auto-segmented into 8 to 18 zones by curvature and lateral G, and every zone gets a delta showing exactly how much time you lost there versus your theoretical optimal. Coaching tips are ranked by where the most time is hiding.<br>- Sector best splits across the laps in a session, plus an optimal sector-best lap that stitches together your best sector from every lap.<br>- Pick any lap from any session as a reference and ghost-overlay it on the satellite map. The faster line shows up directly on top of the slower one.<br>- Speed-delta map overlay shows you, foot by foot, where you&#39;re carrying more speed than your reference and where you&#39;re giving it back.<br><br>What you get<br>- Satellite-map overlays: speed, time loss, grip utilization, consistency, lap-vs-lap<br>- Optimal-lap calculation that&#39;s car-independent and bounded by what you&#39;ve actually demonstrated — never assumes faster than you&#39;ve driven<br>- Sector best splits and per-sector optimals<br>- Bravery score (grip commitment, independent of lap time) and on-limit percentage<br>- Trail-brake score, dead time, min-speed average, grip envelope<br>- Live GPS recording — no external data logger or hardware required<br><br>Works with your existing data logger<br>GridLine reads telemetry from RaceChrono (.rcz), AIM Solo / Solo 2, VBOX, TrackAddict, Apex Pro, and any CSV with GPS and speed. Bring the lap data you already have — no need to switch lap timers.<br><br>Privacy and pricing<br>GridLine runs entirely on your device. Your telemetry and lap analysis never leave your phone. Free to use, no subscriptions, no ads, no account required.
