indycar.com Live T&S application

The new IndyCar Live T&S system has completed the last phase of updates. It will be rolled out next week for the Open Test at Homestead.

This version will be Flash driven. In the past, we used an HTML version that would refresh every 15 seconds or so. We did it this way so it would be compatible with most browsers. The obvious problem is the data was delayed and at times would appear odd.

The new Flash version will give real time data. You will also be able to choose Lap Times. This is a significant upgrade over previous version. We will continue to update it throughout the year.

The back end infrastructure will consist of using multiple Flash servers at a CDN. This will increase response time and allow us to expand when needed.
