AVB RaceLabs: karting race engineering

Your pit wall.
In your
pocket.

Tyre pressures, gearing, ballast and grip, calculated for your kart, your track and the day’s conditions. Built on engineering calculations, not guesswork. And when you want to understand a recommendation, ask your AI Race Engineer.

A good lap starts with getting the kart set up properly. Dozens of variables pull against each other: tyre pressures and temperatures, gear ratio, total weight and where the ballast sits, chassis setup, the shape of the track and the weather changing through the day. Get the setup wrong and you could lose time, wear tyres unnecessarily or struggle with handling that doesn’t feel right.

AVB RaceLabs brings these factors together to calculate recommendations for your session. It combines your kart, class and weight with the track’s real geometry (every corner, straight and braking zone) and the weather for your session: air and track temperature, grip, wind and rain. It uses engineering calculations to estimate tyre pressure changes, track grip and suitable gearing, alongside ballast and chassis setup guidance.

The result is a setup starting point tailored to your kart, track and conditions, ready before you head out. So when the flag drops, the difference is you. Your AI Race Engineer explains the reasoning behind the recommendations, so you understand what to change and why.

06 / Pit-wall Q&A

Straight questions,
straight answers.

Is there a free trial?
Yes. Try any paid plan free for 14 days: Premium, Pro with AI or a team band. The trial starts when you choose the plan and give your card details, and you are charged after 14 days unless you cancel before then. One trial per person. Free stays free, with no card.
Can I cancel any time?
Yes. Every plan, team bands included, is monthly with no fixed term. Move down from a paid plan and you keep what you paid for until the end of that month. Team plans are bought, changed and cancelled on the web portal.
Can team members pay the team manager through the app?
Not inside the app: AVB never handles team money and takes no cut. The manager raises charges and invoices in the app, and each member sees what they owe and the team's payment details there. You pay the team directly, for example by bank transfer, and the manager marks it as paid, so both sides can see the balance.
What happens to my data if I move down a plan?
Your existing data is retained, subject to the account and data-retention policy. Sessions, setups and Pit Kit journals stay. On Free, journal limits only hold back new entries; you can still open and edit everything.
Do parents, mechanics or coaches have to pay?
No. On a team they are free and unlimited. Team bands count drivers only.
