X2 Race Control
X2 Race Control is a fully integrated solution, including FIA & FIM homologated Light Panels, to control all the action happening on the track, using real-time data (GPS location, vehicle data) to help you improve your race control.
✔ Be in Control ✔ Sports: ✔ Closed Circuit Racing
There’s nothing more exciting than motorsport: pushing the limits of vehicles, drivers, and racing officials. We all know this is not without risk. That’s why we have developed X2 Race Control, a fully integrated solution to control all the action happening on the track, using real-time data (GPS location, vehicle data) to help you raise the safety of personnel and racers.
The way in which Race Control responds to a dangerous situation is vital to reduce injury and mechanical damage. MYLAPS, the inventor of automated sports timing, introduces X2 Race Control: the next level in Race Control that can be used as stand-alone solution or integration with your MYLAPS timing system. X2 Race Control is a powerful add-on to your marshalling staff.
Setup
X2 Race Control is a modular system, meaning that you can select the components that suit the needs of your circuit.
You can choose from the following X2 Race Control options:
Tracking
Marshalling
Advanced Track Management
Live Data
Trackside Solution Components
X2 Link Server
The beating heart of X2 Race Control. All components are connected to and controlled from this core device. Available in Club and Pro housing.

X2 Baselink
The BaseLink sends out radio frequency signals, which are picked up by the X2 RaceLink antennas mounted on each vehicle. The BaseLink is installed at the start/finish line, on a position with a maximum line of sight, for instance on top of a finish arch. This will ensure an optimized wireless connection with the RaceLink installed on the vehicles.The BaseLink connects to the LoopBox, which also powers the BaseLink. The Ethernet port connection to the LoopBox ensures a high-quality signal.
Multi BaseLink setups
With a Multi BaseLink setup, you can cover the complete track, no matter what size, height difference, and terrain. Several X2 BaseLinks can be linked together and controlled by race control. Depending on the layout, environment, and location the number of X2 BaseLinks required may vary.
