[1][2] Time trialist will often seek to maintain marginal aerodynamic gains as the races are often won or lost by a couple of seconds.
[6] In many forms of motorsport, a similar format is used in qualifying to determine the starting order for the main event, though multiple attempts to set the fastest time are often allowed.
[citation needed] Unlike other timed motorsport disciplines such as sprinting and hillclimbing, the car is required to start off under full rolling start conditions following a warm up lap in which they will have to accelerate out as fast as possible to determine how fast they enter their timed lap.
In February 2019 a new event called Superlap Battle USA was run at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas.
As to date this championship runs 4-6 races per year on CM.com Circuit Zandvoort, TT-circuit Assen, Nürburgring GP-Strecke (together with German Time Attack Masters) and occasional additional racetracks in Germany, Belgium or France.
[citation needed] National Auto Sport Association Time Trial (NASA TT) series is a national auto competition program, utilizing regional series based on a time trial style format, with rules that establish car classifications to provide a contest of driver skill.
[citation needed] NASA TT provides a venue for spirited on-track competition with a high degree of both safety and convenience.
[citation needed] In Germany, the German Timeattack Masters is a time attack championship, held since 2013.
[citation needed] Events are held on various racing tracks, most of them located in Germany, like the Nürburgring Grand Prix course, the Lausitzring and the Hockenheimring.
Additionally, for years, the TT Circuit Assen is used in cooperation with the Dutch Time Attack Masters.
In cases in which a game does not have a dedicated time attack or trial mode, a fast completion is frequently known as a speedrun.
Racing games often feature "ghost cars" which are saved when the player sets a record time.
In subsequent races, the ghost car follows the path the player took when setting that record, allowing them to clearly gauge how they are performing against the previous achievement.
[citation needed] Sometimes, the settings of a time attack mode are "locked" in order to standardize competition between players.
