Karting telemetry
Karting telemetry analysis that shows what to fix next
Telemetry should help you drive better, not just create more graphs. Tenth Finder turns MyChron karting data into visual coaching you can use before the next session.
3 free analyses. Works across Rotax, X30, KA100, OK, KZ, shifter, LO206, and club racing where MyChron is used.
What karting telemetry can actually reveal
Telemetry from a karting session can reveal a lot: braking points, minimum corner speeds, rotation, throttle pickup, and how consistent you are lap to lap. The hard part is reading it quickly enough to act on between runs.
Raw data on its own does not coach you. It just sits there. The value comes from turning the data into a small number of clear decisions for the next session.
The Tenth Finder approach
Map, losses, comparison, suggestions — in that order — so you finish a session with a plan, not more questions.
Track map first
A track map is the fastest way to see where time was lost. Tenth Finder marks the corners that cost the most so you can see the pattern at a glance.
Ranked losses
The biggest 2–3 losses, sorted. This is where most lap-time comes from in karting, and it is what you can realistically fix next session.
Lap comparison
Best lap vs slower lap from the same session, or compare two sessions from the same track. Useful for separating driving from setup.
Driving suggestions
Plain-language notes on what the data suggests. Not guarantees — useful starting points for the next run.
Cause and effect, not just numbers
Telemetry is most useful when it explains cause and effect. In one comparison example, a 7 km/h deficit entering Turn 8 was traced back to a Turn 7 exit problem, so the driver knew which corner to fix first — instead of attacking the wrong corner.

Anonymized 2-stroke (KA100/X30) session. Same workflow, different engine.
The same Tenth Finder workflow runs on a 2-stroke session as on an LO206 session. Different speeds, different RPM patterns, same questions: where is time being lost, why, and what should the driver try next?
Session report
Goodwood Short · 2026-05-10 · 2-stroke (KA100/X30)
Best lap
39.706s
Laps
3 timed
Max speed
101.6 km/h
Main issue
Excessive speed scrub through the slow/medium complex (T3–T6) — over-braking into entries, then sluggish throttle pickup on exits.
Top losses
Turn 3 (slow)
~0.4s
Entry over-braked to 35 km/h min, exit only 39 km/h — kart binding on throttle pickup.
Turn 6 (slow)
~0.3s
Min 40 km/h, exit only 44 km/h — same pattern: speed scrubbed on entry, exit acceleration delayed.
Turn 2 (medium)
~0.2s
Entry 66 → min 54 → exit 57 km/h — large entry loss not recovered on exit.
If you fix only one thing — Turn 3
Carry 3–4 km/h more minimum speed by braking slightly earlier but lighter, then wait for the kart to rotate before rolling onto throttle progressively.
Expected gain: ~0.4s (roughly 40% of identified potential)
What you're doing well
- Strong top-end commitment: 101.6 km/h on the main straight with clean deceleration into T1.
- Lap 3 improved over Lap 2 by 0.95s — actively finding time within the session.
- T7 exit acceleration is progressive and repeatable across both timed laps.
Driver cue
“In a 2-stroke, the RPM crash is the cost. Pick up throttle as the kart starts to rotate, not after it has settled.”

Useful across classes and weekends
Tenth Finder is class-neutral. The same workflow applies whether you race Rotax, X30, KA100, OK, KZ, shifter, LO206, or in club / rental events where MyChron is used.
It is built for the rhythm of practice days and race weekends: run a session, get a clear read on what mattered, head back out with a focused plan. It is not affiliated with AIM and works alongside whatever other tools you already use.
Frequently asked questions
What is karting telemetry analysis?
Karting telemetry analysis means taking the data your MyChron records during a session — GPS, speed, RPM, lap times — and using it to understand where you are driving well and where time is being lost. The goal is concrete feedback for the next session.
Do I need sensors beyond MyChron?
No. Tenth Finder is built around the data that MyChron 5, 5S, and 6 already record. You do not need extra sensors to get useful analysis.
Which kart classes can use it?
Any class where MyChron is used: Rotax, X30, KA100, OK, KZ, shifter, LO206, and club or rental racing where compatible. The analysis is class-neutral.
Is this only for advanced racers?
No. The visual track-map view and ranked losses make it easy to use even if you are early in your racing. Advanced racers tend to use it as a fast sanity check between sessions.
Can telemetry actually show driving mistakes?
It can show patterns that are very likely caused by driving: late braking that costs minimum speed, over-slowing, slow rotation, weak exit. It will not always be certain — Tenth Finder tries to be honest when the data does not clearly explain what happened.
