AI setup engineer
Get tyre, suspension, aero, gearing and driving-style recommendations tuned to your car, the circuit, live weather and your experience level.
The AI setup engineer, Ross, generates a setup recommendation and a target lap time from what you tell it about the day.
What goes in
| Input | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Your vehicle | Make, model, category and what you’ve fitted: the baseline for every recommendation. |
| The circuit | Layout, surface notes and, for many circuits, a knowledge base the AI draws on. |
| Weather | Current conditions and a 7-day forecast, including estimated track surface temperatures. |
| Your experience level | Feeds pace targets and how conservative the setup is. Be honest: it produces better advice. |
| Discipline | Track day, circuit racing, drift (including tandem strategy), karting, open-wheel or closed-wheel. |
What comes out
A structured recommendation covering tyres, suspension, aero, gearing and driving style, with a target lap time. Sections are colour-coded so you can scan them at the track.

Share and take it trackside
- Every setup has a public share link and one-tap WhatsApp sharing.
