History
Trackpedia was founded in 2006 and quickly grew into the largest online repositories of information dealing with racing circuit and high performance driving and riding in the world. Throughout 2006 and until the present day Trackpedia's online data repository has grown to include in-depth descriptions of nearly 98% of the world's active racing circuits.
Company Goals and Strategies
To supplement the data the racers themselves are consuming from the online repository, Trackpedia has moved into building and delivering software tools to analyze the performance of the drivers' vehicles as well as to retain information about the vehicles which will allow drivers to tune for optimal performance on the circuit.
Users also submit their in-car video, which can be analyzed by experts who can advise drivers on their driving style and performance.
