Rejoin helper

Tells you when it's safe to rejoin after a spin

The Rejoin helper widget: a red striped frame and HOLD, car #7 GT3 behind, 2.4 s away
The Rejoin helper widget: a green frame and CLEAR, the next car 6.4 s away

What it is for

It comes up by itself when your car stops or goes off: under 15 km/h for half a second, half your usual speed at that point of the lap, or all four wheels off the track at reduced speed. The pit lane doesn't count.

The seconds are the gap to the nearest car behind, of any class. Less than your safe gap, and it says HOLD and names the car; more, and it says CLEAR. Two seconds after you're moving again, it's gone.

What you can tune

  • The gap to the car behind, in seconds, that's enough to rejoin: 5 out of the box, anywhere from 2 to 15.

Size, position and when it shows are set the same way for every widget.
