Corner Lab

About Corner Lab

The car is doing something at a corner. What do you change first? Corner Lab ranks the moves for that car at that corner — technique and setup, with a step size and what each one costs you elsewhere.

How it works

Each symptom has a default order. The car's layout and the corner re-weight it. A hairpin and a fast sweeper get different answers in the same car.

Anything the garage cannot change is left out. The car page lists those gaps. The same rules apply to every combination — a starting sequence, not a verdict.

Limits

  • Rule-based, not telemetry. A starting sequence, not a verdict.
  • Dry running, road and street courses.
  • Corner notes say what a corner asks of the car, not the line to take.
  • Check braking references against your own boards.
  • Corner names and numbering follow common usage; some circuits number differently between layouts.

What it covers

62 cars, 113 layouts, 1,051 corners. Road and street courses, dry running. Ovals are a different setup model, so they are not here.

Each race week, the circuit the rookie series are racing is free: the Mazda MX-5 Cup and the BMW M2 Cup there, with its lap guide — see what is free this week. So is every car page and every symptom explainer. Everything else is a membership.
