Pitwall OS Automotive

Vehicle readiness, lifing and a season planner that holds up

Automotive is the motorsport and vehicle backbone: race cars, track cars, karts, dragsters, hire fleets and collections all live as assets with readiness state.

Lifing works the way the paddock thinks — distance, hours, runs and heat cycles — and the season planner ties rounds and championships to the cars actually available.

What it adds

  • Vehicle fleet with readiness and status
  • Distance, hours, runs and heat-cycle lifing
  • Work orders, faults and incident history
  • Tyre sets, positions, heat cycles and storage
  • Race season planner with rounds and championships
  • Provenance, valuation and originality for collections

How it runs

01

Fleet

Every vehicle carries status, readiness and its own component tree.

02

Life

Distance, hours, runs and heat cycles tick over from sessions and events.

03

Fix

Work orders, faults and incident history stay attached to the car.

04

Plan

Season planner lines rounds and championships up against real availability.

Case studies

Each of these is a live demo workspace you can sign into. The companies are fictional, created to show how Pitwall OS Automotive works in a real operation.

Gridline · Motion simulator events and installations

Motion rigs lifed like race cars

Twenty-two motion simulators built from actuators, controllers, PCs and displays had no single service history, so faults were diagnosed from memory.

What they use in Automotive

  • Asset chain from Qubic serial to actuators, PC, GPU and display
  • Run-hours and service intervals per simulator
  • Work orders and commissioning test records
  • Customer and installation records in CRM alongside the rigs

Outcome

Every rig carries its own configuration and service history, so workshop builds and on-site fixes start from facts.

Pacific Nitro Works Racing · Top Fuel drag racing team

Pass-based lifing for parts that live four seconds

A two-car Top Fuel team measured component life in passes and heat cycles, and had to rebuild every engine between runs across a twelve-round season.

What they use in Automotive

  • Pass-based lifing on engines, clutch packs, superchargers, rods and cranks
  • Full teardown and reassembly jobs logged between every pass
  • Serialised marks per car — ENG-TF-014 on TF-01, ENG-TF-021 on TF-02
  • 42 minute clutch turnaround tracked against the round schedule

Outcome

Teardown findings feed the next build, and the service schedule makes a pass at Gainesville repeatable at Seattle.

Scuderia Novanta GT · GT and endurance team

Endurance line-ups billed as accurately as they're run

Multi-driver GT entries meant gentleman-driver billing and stint plans were reconstructed after each event from notes.

What they use in Automotive

  • Multi-driver line-ups against car and event
  • Endurance run plans and pit stop sequences
  • Component lifing across long-distance running
  • Customer racing invoices generated from actual usage

Outcome

Stint data and invoicing come from the same record, so customer racing settles within days of the flag.

Valora Karting Team · Karting race team and driver academy

Every chassis, engine and session documented

A Valencia race team and academy ran 18 chassis and 32 engines across rental, Mini, Junior, Senior and KZ drivers with setup sheets living in notebooks.

What they use in Automotive

  • Chassis and engine records with hours since rebuild
  • Setup sheets per session with tyres, gearing and driver feedback
  • Scrutineering and race-ready checks before every event
  • Academy driver development plans in CRM

Outcome

Race preparation is evidence-based: engineers know each kart's history and coaches review sessions against a documented plan.

Ridgeline Racing · British Superbike privateer team

Component life measured session by session

A British Superbike privateer team with no factory support needed to know exactly how much life remained in engines, gearboxes, wheels and brake packages after every session.

What they use in Automotive

  • Motorcycles, engines, gearboxes, suspension, wheels and electronics as one linked asset tree
  • Component lifing by race and test mileage, hours and rebuild interval
  • Setup sheets with geometry, gearing, electronics, tyres and rider feedback per session
  • Work orders, inspections and crash history against every serialised part

Outcome

Parts are replaced on evidence rather than instinct, and two motorcycles stay race-ready on a privateer budget all season.
