Full Lap Exercises

Practice complete lap braking sequences with all corners connected and rest periods between braking zones.

Full Lap Exercises let you practice an entire lap’s worth of braking zones in sequence, simulating the rhythm of a complete lap. Unlike individual corner exercises, full lap exercises connect all braking zones with appropriate rest periods.

What Are Full Lap Exercises?

The Concept

A Full Lap Exercise combines all braking zones from a lap into one continuous practice session:

Sequential zones - Practice corners in racing order
Rest periods - Timed gaps between braking zones
Lap rhythm - Develop the flow of a complete lap
Realistic simulation - Closer to actual racing conditions

Benefits

Why practice full laps instead of individual corners:

Individual Corners	Full Lap
Focus on one technique	Practice transitions between corners
Isolated repetition	Develop lap rhythm
Quick improvement	Build endurance and consistency
Best for problem areas	Best for race preparation

Creating Full Lap Exercises

From Imported Telemetry

Generate a full lap exercise from your data:

Go to My Laps
Find a lap you want to practice
Open the lap details
Click Create Full Lap Exercise
Configure options (see below)
Click Create

Exercise Options

Configure your full lap exercise:

Duration Settings

Use actual timing - Rest periods match your real lap
Compressed timing - Shorter rest periods for faster practice
Extended timing - Longer rest for beginners

Tolerance

How precisely you need to match each braking curve
Lower tolerance = more forgiving
Higher tolerance = more demanding

Repetitions

How many complete laps to practice
Typically 3-5 for race preparation
More for learning new tracks

From Existing Exercises

Combine individual corner exercises:

Go to Practice
Click Create Full Lap
Select individual exercises to include
Arrange them in lap order
Set rest periods between them
Save the full lap exercise

Practice Sessions

Starting a Full Lap Session

Begin your practice:

Select the full lap exercise
Click Start
Wait for the countdown
First braking zone begins
Follow the target curve
Rest period automatically starts
Prepare for next zone

During Practice

The interface shows:

Current zone number - Which corner you’re practicing
Progress bar - Position within the lap
Rest countdown - Time until next zone
Score - Current zone and overall performance

Rest Periods

Between braking zones:

Countdown timer shows time until next zone
Preview of upcoming braking curve
Relax period to reset position
Preparation cue before next zone starts

Completing a Lap

After all zones:

Lap score - Average across all zones
Zone breakdown - Score per corner
Option to repeat or end session
Cumulative statistics if doing multiple laps

Scoring

Individual Zone Scores

Each braking zone is scored on:

Accuracy - How closely you matched the curve
Timing - Start and end timing precision
Consistency - Stability of your brake application

Lap Score

The overall lap score combines:

Average of all zone scores
Weighted by zone difficulty
Bonus for consistency across zones
Penalty for completely missed zones

Performance Tracking

Track your improvement:

History of lap scores
Best score per track
Progress over time
Zone-specific trends

Customizing Full Lap Exercises

Editing Zones

Modify which zones are included:

Open the full lap exercise
Click Edit
Toggle zones on/off
Adjust individual zone settings
Save changes

Adjusting Rest Periods

Fine-tune the timing:

Increase rest for more recovery time
Decrease rest to build endurance
Match actual lap timing for realism
Use variable rest (shorter as lap progresses)

Difficulty Progression

Adjust overall difficulty:

Easy Mode

Lower tolerance requirements
Longer rest periods
Visual guides enabled

Normal Mode

Standard tolerance
Realistic rest periods
Standard feedback

Hard Mode

High precision required
Minimal rest periods
Audio feedback only option

Advanced Features

Segment Practice

Practice specific sections of the lap:

Select full lap exercise
Click Practice Segment
Choose start and end zones
Practice only that section
Useful for focusing on problem areas

Random Order

Mix up the zone order:

Enable Random Order in settings
Zones appear in random sequence
Prevents pattern memorization
Better for reaction training

Variable Difficulty

Dynamic difficulty adjustment:

Enable Adaptive Difficulty
Tolerance adjusts based on performance
Harder zones get easier if you struggle
Easier zones get harder as you improve

Full Lap vs. Individual Practice

When to Use Full Laps

Race week preparation - Simulate actual racing
Building endurance - Extended practice sessions
Rhythm development - Get the flow of the lap
Final preparation - Before heading to the simulator

When to Use Individual Corners

Problem areas - Focus on weak corners
Technique development - Work on specific skills
Quick sessions - Limited practice time
Learning new tracks - One corner at a time

Combining Both

Optimal practice routine:

Start with individual corners - Work on technique
Progress to segments - Connect 2-3 corners
Build to full laps - Practice complete rhythm
Return to individuals - Address remaining issues

Tips for Full Lap Practice

Getting Started

Begin with easy tolerance settings
Use extended rest periods initially
Focus on completing all zones first
Don’t worry about perfect scores

Building Consistency

Practice the same lap multiple times
Track your scores to measure improvement
Focus on your weakest zones
Aim for consistent scores across all zones

Race Preparation

Practice full laps the week of a race
Use realistic rest period timing
Do 3-5 lap sessions for endurance
Finish with fresh individual corner practice

Common Mistakes

Rushing rest periods - Use them to mentally prepare
Giving up on hard zones - Every zone attempt counts
Only practicing easy laps - Challenge yourself
Ignoring patterns - Note which zones consistently suffer
