Before the event

Plan every run before the car rolls out.

Build the event once: championship, track, cars, drivers and TimeTable. Then lay out each session in RunPlan, with who drives, on which tyres, for how many laps and on how much fuel.

Race turns the sheet into a pit wall. Fuel in the car, stint time, driving time and pit windows count down lap by lap, and the laps ahead are forecast at the pace of the driver in the car.

Log the next lap, or type your own times

Stint limits: Stint and driving time for each driver, with a warning when three laps are left.
Fuel readings: Log the fuel used from the dash and the fuel in the car follows the real figure.
Follow Cars: Competitor laps, sectors and pit stops next to your own.
Track map: 125 circuits available offline, with the distance to pit in.

Latest releases

Updated between race weekends.

Runsheet is under constant development by engineers who use it at the track. Updates download on their own, install when you choose and leave your data as it is.

Lap times straight from HH Timing

Runsheet now connects to HH Timing, on the same PC or over the team network. What the timing sees lands in the sheet of each car as it happens, with nothing to type.

Laps and sectors: Lap and sector times for every car you run, in Session and in Race.
Pit in and pit out: The clock at the pit lane entry and exit, logged with the lap.
Flags and track limits: Track status and track-limit warnings, lap by lap.
Follow Cars: Any car the timing sees can be followed: laps, sectors, stints and pit stops.

Capabilities

A complete race engineering workflow.

From the first event plan to the post-session debrief, Runsheet connects the records and calculations a race engineer needs without turning the weekend into another collection of spreadsheets.

Events, TimeTable & multi-car weekends

Plan championships, tracks, event days, sessions, cars, drivers and team context in one motorsport event-management archive.

Digital runsheets & lap timing

Record runs, laps, up to six sectors, clock time, lap status, driver ideals, deltas, custom columns and live session progress.

RunPlan & tyre-heater planning

Build the session run plan, assign drivers and tyre sets, estimate time and fuel, manage warm-up windows, and print the tyre-heater timeline.

Race & endurance strategy

Model formation laps, driver pace, stint limits, tyre changes, fuel targets and Can call or Must call timing for endurance racing.

Fuel calculator & pit timing

Calculate fuel per lap, race consumption, reserve and remaining laps with pit-lane loss, stop duration, margins and driver-specific pace.

Pit windows & refuel towers

Track pit-window countdowns, mandatory-stop logic, refuelling towers, fuel flow and the timing of each planned stop.

Race car setup sheets

Create customizable butterfly setup sheets, compare revisions, highlight changes, calculate corner weights and retain every session setup.

Setup adjustment calculator

Tell Runsheet how each adjustment moves the car, then enter the geometry you have and the one you want. It works out the turns and shims for each corner, with the effect of every change on the other values.

Tyres, drivers & mileage

Track tyre sets and individual barcodes, starting and accumulated mileage, driver assignments, mixed sets and tyre carryover between events.

Tyre pressure management

Store reference runs, cold and hot pressure logs, pressure targets and pit bleeds, then calculate predictions with the gas-law model and share a mobile view.

Weather & track conditions

Log ambient, track and weather conditions against event, session and race timing, then compare trends in the Weather charts.

BoP, regulations & scrutineering

Manage Balance of Performance revisions and curves, regulation limits, scrutineering measurements, compliance state and setup-to-inspection comparison.

Measurements, Faults & Jobs

Record technical measurements, deltas and warnings, follow vehicle faults, and manage the job list for each session and event.

Tech Report & driver Debrief

Compare setup evolution, prepare technical reports, capture driver feedback and produce consistent post-session debrief documents.

Race Control & Follow Cars

Follow competitor sector and lap timing, compare selected cars and keep the race-control view docked or open on a second screen.

Event reports, PDF & data export

Print complete event reports, RunPlans, runsheets, setup and scrutineering sheets, tyre reports and debriefs; export supported data as PDF, XLSX, JSON or text.

Track maps, documents & data links

Keep GPS track layouts, regulations, PDFs, folders and web references with the right vehicle, championship or event, and link runs to local telemetry files.

Offline database, backup & team transfer

Keep the competitive database local, work offline in the paddock, create verified backups and consolidate multiple cars through controlled export and import.

FAQ

Before you download.

Questions race engineers and teams ask when replacing setup spreadsheets, paper runsheets and separate strategy calculators.

What is Runsheet and who is it for?

Runsheet is race engineering software for performance engineers, data engineers, crew chiefs, team managers, mechanics, and racing teams. It organizes the complete race-weekend workflow: events, sessions, digital runsheets, RunPlan, setup sheets, race strategy, tyres, weather, scrutineering, reports, and debriefs.

Can Runsheet replace Excel setup sheets and race runsheets?

Yes. Runsheet replaces disconnected Excel templates with structured event and session records, digital runsheets, customizable race car setup sheets, setup history and comparison, lap and sector timing, custom columns, printable reports, and verified backup and restore.

What race strategy and pit wall tools are included?

Race and endurance workflows include fuel calculations, fuel margins, formation laps, refuelling strategy, pit timing, pit windows, refuel towers, driver stint limits, tyre changes, driver pace comparison, Race Control, Follow Cars timing, and Can call or Must call strategy guidance.

How does Runsheet manage car setup, BoP, and scrutineering?

The app provides customizable butterfly setup sheets, setup history and comparison, corner weights, adjustment calculations, regulation limits, editable Balance of Performance revisions, scrutineering inspections, compliance status, Measurements, and technical reports.

What tyre management and tyre pressure tools are included?

Runsheet tracks tyre sets, individual tyre identity and barcodes, starting and accumulated mileage, carryover between events, RunPlan tyre-heater windows, cold and hot pressure logs, reference runs, gas-law pressure predictions, pit bleeds, pressure targets, and mobile sharing for the tyre engineer.

What reports and debriefs can Runsheet create?

Runsheet creates printable RunPlans, session and race runsheets, setup sheets, tyre-heater plans, Jobs lists, Tyres and Drivers reports, Tyre Pressure reports, technical reports, scrutineering reports, driver debriefs, and a complete Event Report. Depending on the document, data can be exported as PDF, XLSX, JSON, text, or clipboard content.

What racing categories does Runsheet support?

Runsheet supports GT3, Ferrari Challenge, Cup cars, prototypes, touring cars, karts, formula and single-seater cars, and other circuit-racing categories. Vehicles, setup templates, units, regulations, lists, columns, and workflows are configurable rather than tied to one championship.

Does Runsheet require internet?

Internet is required to create or recover an account, sign in, migrate a licence, and periodically validate access. Motorsport data stays in a local SQLite database. After a successful online check, full offline access remains available for up to 30 days; afterwards the same data remains available for consultation, export, and backup in read-only mode until access is checked again.

How do multi-car teams share Runsheet data?

Each engineer can work independently on a local laptop, then export a complete event or session for transfer by USB or shared folder. A team manager imports the files to consolidate multiple cars without uploading the team's competitive motorsport database to a cloud service.
