Overview

Joel Real Timing (JRT) is a standings overlay for iRacing that color-codes drivers by class and gap, and works over replays as well as live sessions, which makes it a common pick for spotting and broadcast use as well as regular racing. It ships as a paid, shareware-licensed Windows app with a 30-day trial before an annual license is required.

A separate community-maintained GitHub repository hosts custom overlay configuration files, but the core application itself is closed source.

About Joel Real Timing (JRT)

JRT runs a live standings table that updates several times a second, color-coding drivers by class and gap so the field is readable at a glance, whether you're spotting for a teammate, calling a broadcast, or just watching your own race from a second screen. Beyond the core standings, it includes a delta graph tracking your pace against nearby competitors, a pit stop calculator with a ghost car overlay on the track map, and logging of lap times and fuel usage to CSV for review after the session.

Because JRT works over recorded replays as well as live sessions, it's a common pick for producing race broadcasts and highlight reels after the fact, not only for real-time use mid-race. It runs as a local web app viewed through a browser, so the timing table can sit on a second monitor or a separate device on the same network instead of overlapping the sim window.

It's shareware: a 30-day free trial starts the first time you take to the track, after which continued use needs a purchased license, with separate annual update extensions to keep receiving new versions. That makes it worth trying during a season before deciding whether to add it as a standing app slot alongside iRacing.
