Field notes
Racer compares a drive with three possible ghosts: the map's predicted pace, the driver's own best legal run, or a friend's recorded GPS line. Its rules reject sustained speeds above 85 mph and drives that beat the map estimate by more than 30 percent, while settings lock once the car is moving. Challenge links last 30 days, and the site says shared trails remain private to recipients of the code.
