Why Switch
Moving your track to RaceLyx
Most RC timing software predates OBS, phones, and online entry. RaceLyx assumes all three.
Pain Points
Sound familiar?
Here's what changes when you switch.
Expensive annual licenses that eat into your budget
$50 one-time Home Track license: pay once and keep it, or a monthly plan for bigger clubs
Switching means leaving years of results and records behind
Import past events and results from LiveRC or RC Scoring Pro, so track records and driver careers carry over
Requires internet to run a race
Everything runs on the timing PC: race with no internet at all
Mains that don't run the way your club races
Mains seeded from qualifying with bump-ups, run to a lap count you set for each main, such as C 15, B 20, A 20
Heat sheets written out by hand and taped to the wall
Print lineups and results from the Print hub, or put the heats page and running order on a TV in the pits
Only one person at the club knows how to run the scoring
Big, clear race control screens that a volunteer at the timing table can read at a glance
No streaming integration for your live broadcasts
12 OBS overlay themes, an Overlay Designer, and automatic scene switching
Missing race formats force awkward workarounds
Heats and mains, multi-leg finals, endurance, stage rally, Reedy race, rocket rounds, practice, and Quick Race, with games like Knockout and Don't get lapped for walk-up nights
No way to collect entry fees online
Online registration with payment into your own Stripe account, for $0.25 per paid entry
No public results page for racers to check at home
Live timing, heats, results, and standings on your track page, and in the RaceLyx app for iPhone and Android
Drivers can't hear the PA and have no idea where they are mid-race
LyxSpotter calls each driver's own race in their headset from their phone: position, lap time, and the gaps ahead and behind
Crash mid-race means starting over from scratch
Crash recovery picks the race up where it stopped, and a heat can be rebuilt from the timing log
Six reasons tracks switch
Club Night Programs
Timed qualifying, mains seeded with bump-ups and run to a lap count per main, heat sheets printed or on a TV, and results on the public site when the main ends.
Works Offline
A native Windows app on a Rust timing core. The full race can run with the network cable unplugged; cloud sync is a toggle you flip when you want public results.
Clear Plans
Free for small rally and circuit events, $50 once for a home track, or monthly for clubs. Higher plans add drivers and club tools, and every plan starts with a 21-day trial.
Broadcast-Ready
Drop a transparent overlay into OBS: position tower, lower third, ticker, or one you design. The TV in the pits and the stream share one look, and OBS scenes can change on their own as the race moves.
Built-In Revenue
Take registration payments into your own Stripe account, see what each event brought in, and keep your member roster current, without bolting on a second service.
Active Development
Updates ship through the year, not in multi-year versions, and each one is run through twelve full race nights in automated tests before it goes out. Tell us what your track needs and it goes on the list.
