And the winners are...

๐Ÿ‘Congratulations to the outstanding participants of the Hack the Track Hackathon! You've crossed the finish line with flying colors!

Check out the winning projects along with all of the awesome submissions in the Hack the Track gallery and see the champions in action!

  • ๐Ÿ† Grand Prize - Driver Training & Insights: Telemetry/Driver Comparison AI - This project impressively bridges the gap between amateur and professional racing by delivering a cloud-based AI telemetry platform capable of precise, meter-by-meter driver comparisons. Utilizing a robust stack of React and Supabase, the team engineered a high-performance pipeline that processed 23.2 million raw data points into actionable, context-aware coaching insights.
  • ๐Ÿฅˆ Second Place - Racing Intelligence Platform - Riyex - Riyex is an impressive Racing Intelligence Platform that synthesizes raw TRD telemetry into high-value insights like perfect lap modeling and consistency scoring. The team built a highly efficient, single-server architecture using Python and Rails to normalize fragmented data sources into a unified "Gold Layer" for reliable analysis. This tool powerfully democratizes professional-grade strategy, helping drivers instantly identify pace fade and technique improvements through intuitive visualizations.
  • ๐Ÿฅ‰ Third Place - Apex Velocity - Apex Velocity delivers a high-performance racing analytics platform for Toyota GR Cup drivers, utilizing Next.js 15 to render complex telemetry data directly in the browser. By processing raw race data into interactive GPS visualizations and side-by-side metrics, the tool allows users to precisely compare braking points, speed, and racing lines against competitors. This project effectively democratizes professional-grade data analysis, enabling drivers to identify performance gaps without the need for expensive, specialized software.
  • Best of Driver Training/ Insights - Carma: Fastest Lap Intelligence
  • Best of Pre-event predictions - Galaxie - Pre Race Statistics
  • Best of Post-event analysis - Project ฮฑlpha
  • Best of Real-time analytics - Toyota GR Cup Real-Time Dashboard Simulator
  • Best of Wildcard - GR Cup Analytics
