DriverLink Launches Open Beta: Free Live Timing, Driver Profiles, and Championship Scoring for Grassroots Motorsports

DriverLink

A modern, integrated platform built by a racer and organization leader to address the growing gap in grassroots motorsports timing and data tools

MASSAPEQUA, NY — February 10, 2026 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – DriverLink, a comprehensive motorsports platform, today announced its public open beta at driverlink.io. The platform is free for both drivers and racing organizations, offering live timing, driver profiles, championship scoring, setup tracking, telemetry analysis, and event management — all accessible from any device.

Filling a Gap in Grassroots Motorsports

The grassroots motorsports community — club racers, HPDE enthusiasts, time attack competitors, and endurance teams — has long needed an integrated platform that brings together live timing, historical data, and the tools organizations rely on to run events. The current landscape lacks a truly mobile-first solution that connects the needs of individual drivers with the operational demands of the organizations that serve them.

DriverLink was built to change that. Rather than piecing together separate tools for timing, results, registration, and data analysis, DriverLink provides a single ecosystem where everything connects — what happened on track, why it happened, and what to do next.

Built by a Racer, for Racers

DriverLink was created by Jon Katz, an active club racer and the current Chairman of the Eastern Motor Racing Association (EMRA). Having spent years both competing on track and managing the operational side of running a racing organization, Katz experienced firsthand the frustrations drivers face tracking their performance — and the challenges organizations encounter delivering timely results, managing championships, and engaging their communities.

“As a driver, I wanted one place to see my lap times, track my progress, keep session notes and compare sessions across events,” said Katz. “As an organization leader, I needed reliable live timing capture, flexible championship scoring, and a way to keep our drivers informed in real time. DriverLink is the platform I wished existed on both sides of that equation.”

What DriverLink Offers

For Drivers:

Driver Profiles & History — Search and claim your profile from over 356,000 driver records spanning 14,000+ events across 778 tracks. View personal bests, season breakdowns, and lap time progression at every track you’ve visited.

Live Timing — Follow race standings, lap times, gaps, and flag status in real time from any device. Mobile-first design built for pit lane tablets, spectator areas, and at-home viewers.

Garage & Setup Tracking — Log your vehicles, build detailed setup sheets with tire pressures and suspension settings, and correlate setup changes with lap time performance through session logs.

Telemetry Analysis — Upload AIM data files for corner-by-corner analysis, theoretical best calculations, and session comparisons. A standalone telemetry viewer is included, with support for additional data logger formats on the way.

Championship Standings — Follow season-long championship points, standings, and class results across the organizations you compete with.

For Racing Organizations:

TrackLink Timing Capture — A dedicated timing appliance or Windows desktop application that captures data from Orbits and RMonitor timing systems. TrackLink works offline and syncs automatically to the cloud when connected. The Windows app is available now for testing and can run alongside existing live timing tools with no disruption.

Championship Scoring — Flexible points systems with drop rounds, tiebreakers, multi-class support, and presets for common series formats. Results are published automatically as sessions are approved.

Schedule & Push Notifications — Build event schedules with run group templates. Drivers receive push notifications before their sessions and can follow events they’re interested in. The platform is available as a progressive web app today, with native mobile apps on the way.

MotorsportReg Integration — Drivers can sign in with their existing MotorsportReg accounts. Organizations can import entry lists and sync vehicle data directly.

Team & Event Management — Invite team members with role-based access, manage events from a centralized dashboard, and publish results and grid lineups for your community.

Coming Soon: The Club Module

DriverLink is developing a Club module designed for racing clubs that compete across multiple organizations. Clubs like the 86 Cup, which run events under different sanctioning bodies throughout a season, will be able to aggregate timing data from all participating organizations into a single view. The Club module will also support approved telemetry integration for club-level championship scoring — giving clubs the ability to manage their own standings, regardless of which organization is hosting the event.

Getting Started

DriverLink is free and open for signup at driverlink.io. Drivers can create an account, search for their racing history, and start tracking their performance immediately. Racing organizations interested in testing the platform can schedule a one-on-one onboarding meeting to walk through the tools and get set up. An upcoming webinar will also be available for both drivers and organizations looking for a guided introduction to the platform.
