NASCAR TrackMan app review: the inside scoop on all the tracks

Introduction

NASCAR fans not only want all the scoop on drivers, standings, and upcoming scheduling, but they even want details on the actual NASCAR tracks. The NASCAR TrackMan app provides users with information on each of the 30 NASCAR tracks so you can apply that knowledge on race day as you follow along.

The best iPad apps for journalists

This app is for the die-hard fans that can't get enough of the sport and want to get their hands on every piece of information available that is related to the sport.

A Deeper Look

This app is about providing users with a deeper understanding of the sport by looking at each individual NASCAR track. It's hard to know how your drivers will do and understand why they have performed the way they have up until this point if you don't look at how the track impacts them. It's no secret that some tracks are just a whole lot harder for drivers and this app will detail why exactly that is.

The best magazine apps for iPad

With this app you'll be able to check out satellite images, more than 60 track images that provide plenty of details, and over 240 official NASCAR statistics. Of course this information is available on all 30 NASCAR tracks. This app also provides itself on offering free updates on a regular basis so you can trust that the information is current and accurate.

An Interesting Look

As a person who really doesn't follow the sport I just assumed all the tracks were relatively similar so being able to see images of the tracks is really quite interesting. Even if the difference is just a couple small details it still makes a big impact on the drivers.

Best iphone and ipad apps

If you happen to be in a NASCAR pool/fantasy league this is a great app to provide you with information that can help you with your picks/lineups. Taking into account what track the racers will be driving on can greatly impact the standings.

Each track includes a picture of its shape in the main menu. Tap on the track to find all the details such as what year it was completed, its’ distance, shape, seating, and more. Switch to satellite image to view the track in a whole other way.

It would be great if this app offered the ability to share images of the track and if you could zoom in on the tracks while in satellite view.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• Very easy to use
• Information on all 30 NASCAR tracks
• View pictures of the track, including satellite view
• View details on the track

Cons

• There is no way to zoom in on the track
• There is no way to share information

Final Thoughts

I like that the NASCAR TrackMan app offered users something different. This isn’t about the drivers and their standings; rather, it provides you with the information on the actual track instead which for many fans is extremely interesting. The app is easy to use, effective, and useful.
