Race Control

Run every rig
from one screen.

Race control software built for sim racing centers — start, pause, and reset sessions across every simulator from a single operator screen. Synced group races, session timers tied to bookings, and live results, with no alt-tabbing into Assetto Corsa Competizione.

No signup required for the demo. Included on the Professional plan and above.

The problem

One operator,
a floor full of rigs.

On a busy night, running sessions by hand means a staff member walking rig to rig — or alt-tabbing into the sim on each machine — to start a race, fix a restart, and end a slot on time. Drivers wait. Slots overrun. Revenue leaks.

The native simulator UI was built for one driver at home, not a commercial floor of eight or twelve bays running back-to-back paid sessions. There's no concept of "the booking that paid for this race" and no way to coordinate a group heat.

GTLane race control puts every rig on one operator screen. Each tile is wired to the booking behind it. One person arms a synced group race, resets a single incident, and keeps the whole floor on schedule — without ever touching a simulator.

What the native sim UI can't do

  • Start, pause, and reset every rig from one operator screen
  • Count down a synced group race across the whole floor
  • Tie a session timer to the slot the customer actually paid for
  • Reset one incident without disturbing the other bays
  • Push hot laps and results to the leaderboard and lounge TV
How it works

From a booking
to the chequered flag.

01

Bookings populate the race control grid

Every confirmed booking shows up on the operator screen as a rig tile — driver name, car, track, and the slot they paid for. Nothing to set up per session.

02

Staff arm and start from one screen

Hit start on a single rig for a walk-in, or arm the whole grid for a group heat and count them down together. The simulators react — staff never leave the operator view.

03

Results flow straight to the lounge

Lap times and finishing order land on the leaderboard and lounge TV display as the session runs. When the timer ends, the bay frees itself for the next booking.

What's included

Everything the operator
screen does for you.

One-click session control

Start, pause, extend, and reset a race from one button per rig. No alt-tabbing into Assetto Corsa Competizione, no fiddling with the sim UI mid-session — staff drive the whole floor from the operator screen.

Multi-sim orchestration

Run every bay from a single grid. Launch a synced session across eight rigs for a group, or control each one independently for walk-ins. The screen shows what each rig is doing right now.

Hot-lap and results management

Capture lap times as the session runs, flag the fastest lap, and push results to the lounge TV and leaderboard the moment the chequered flag drops. No manual transcription.

Session timers tied to bookings

Every race control session is wired to the booking that paid for it. The timer counts down the slot the customer actually bought, and the bay flips to "Available" automatically when it ends.

Group race coordination

For a corporate day or a birthday party, arm all the rigs at once, count down together, and end together. One operator runs a 12-driver heat without touching a single simulator.

Incident and reset handling

A driver spins off, a rig crashes, someone needs a restart — reset that one bay in a click without disturbing the rest of the floor. Every reset is logged against the session.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which simulators and titles does race control work with?
Race control is built around the way sim racing centers actually run sessions — it works with the major PC titles facilities use, including Assetto Corsa Competizione, iRacing, rFactor 2, and Automobilista 2. The operator screen treats every rig the same regardless of which title is loaded, so a mixed-title floor is still controlled from one grid.
Do staff need to alt-tab into the game to control a session?
No. That's the whole point. Start, pause, extend, reset, and end are all driven from the GTLane operator screen. Staff stay in one view and run the entire floor from there instead of walking rig to rig or alt-tabbing into Assetto Corsa Competizione mid-race.
Can I run a synced group race across several rigs at once?
Yes. Arm any set of rigs — or the whole floor — and count them down together so a 12-driver corporate heat or birthday party starts and ends as one event. Each rig can also be controlled independently for walk-ins, so group races and individual sessions run side by side.
How are session timers connected to bookings?
Every race control session is tied to the booking that paid for it. The timer counts down the exact slot the customer purchased, staff can extend it if the customer buys more time, and the bay flips back to Available automatically when the slot ends — no manual cleanup between drivers.
Where do lap times and results go after a session?
Hot laps and finishing order are captured as the race runs and pushed straight to the GTLane leaderboard and the lounge TV display. There's no manual transcription — the result a driver sets is on screen before they're out of the rig.
Is race control included in every plan?
Race control is included on the Professional plan and above. The Starter plan covers core booking and memberships but not the multi-sim operator screen. See the pricing page for the full breakdown.
