02Overview
What Pacific is like to drive.
The full circuit layout at Pacific is 2.25 miles with 11 corners worth setting up for and about 119 ft of elevation change. A generic track-day car in our model brakes hard 10 times a lap and is at full throttle for about 53% of the distance; the longest straight runs roughly 2034 ft.
2 of the corners are slow (under 50 mph in the model), 3 are fast (over 75 mph). There are hairpins where exit speed matters more than entry. Some apexes sit on crests, where the car goes light. The corner notes below come from the mapped geometry, not from local knowledge; we’ll add a researched guide for Pacific later.

The speed trace is a model, not a real lap: a generic track-day car (about 1.1 g of cornering grip, 1 g braking, 150 W/kg) driven on the computed line through an assumed 12 m wide track. Use it to see where the braking zones and flat-out sections are, not to predict your speeds. Elevation: USGS 3DEP 1/3 arc-second (NED 10 m) via OpenTopoData, sampled every 25 m along the mapped centerline.
04Corner by corner
The corners at Pacific.
TRACK’s own corner numbering (C1, C2…), found from the curvature of the mapped centerline. It isn’t the official turn numbering. Each diagram shows the computed line: the minimum-curvature path through an assumed 12 m wide track. It’s a geometric starting point. Your instructor’s line comes first.

Fast right-hander
↱ RightfastkinkTRACK numbering
A fast right-hand kink that turns about 17°, tightening to a radius of roughly 35 m (115 ft). The model car brakes for about 35 m (115 ft), from 140 to 136 mph. The computed line turns in from the left side, takes an apex close to the geometric apex, and lets the car run out to the left on exit.

Medium left-hander
↰ LeftmediumhairpinTRACK numbering
A medium left-hand hairpin that turns about 187°, tightening to a radius of roughly 29 m (95 ft). It drops through the corner (about 2% grade) and goes over a crest, so the car goes light at the apex. The model car brakes for about 245 m (804 ft), from 139 to 64 mph. The computed line turns in from the right side, takes an early apex, about 130 m before the geometric apex, and lets the car run out to the right on exit.

05Configurations
Every mapped loop at Pacific.
TRACK finds each closed loop in the OpenStreetMap raceway network. Named layouts come from OSM circuit relations; the rest are named by length, and some may be combinations the venue never runs. Your first session confirms which one you drove.

06Time it with TRACK
Drive Pacific. TRACK knows where you are.
No setup and no transponder. Start a session in the paddock and TRACK recognises Pacific and the layout from your GPS trace, then times every lap and sector with a live delta to your best.
- 1DetectTRACK matches your first few hundred metres against every mapped layout at Pacific, including shared pavement between configurations.
- 2Confirm the lineThe start/finish line here is estimated. When you’re stopped, TRACK shows it on the map: accept it or tap to move it. You’re never asked while driving.
- 3Laps, timed retroactivelyLaps you drove before confirming are timed from the recorded trace, so you don’t lose your first session.
- 4Go furtherSync a GoPro for video with telemetry and let TRACK Engineer point out where the time is. External 10–25 Hz GPS receivers for tighter sectors are awaiting hardware validation.
- Venue and layout detection is tested on simulated drives over real OpenStreetMap circuits, not yet in a real car. Compatible GPS receivers

FAQ
Pacific, answered.
How long is Pacific?
OpenStreetMap maps 3 closed loops at Pacific Raceways, from 0.83 mi to 2.26 mi (3.63 km). These are mapped centerline lengths; the venue’s published figures can differ slightly.
How much elevation change is there at Pacific?
About 119 ft (36 m) between the lowest and highest points of the full circuit layout, from USGS 3DEP elevation data sampled every 25 m. The steepest stretch is around 17%.
Which direction does Pacific run?
The main mapped layout runs counter-clockwise, from one-way tagging in OpenStreetMap. Check the event’s driver briefing: some venues run reverse-direction days.
Can I time laps at Pacific with my phone?
Yes, with the TRACK iPhone app (beta). It recognises Pacific and the layout you’re driving from GPS, then times laps and sectors. A phone’s GPS is good for lap times; an external 10–25 Hz receiver tightens sector splits.
Where is the start/finish line at Pacific?
TRACK estimates the line from the mapped geometry (usually beside the pit lane, or on the longest straight). It isn’t verified on site, so the app asks you to confirm or move it before timing your first session here.
How do I find track days at Pacific?
Clubs and organizers list HPDE, track days and club races on MotorsportReg. The venue’s own calendar lists its events too. TRACK doesn’t list events itself.
Where can I stay near Pacific?
This page lists hotels, campgrounds, restaurants, fuel and parts stores near Pacific from OpenStreetMap, with straight-line distances. Book early for big event weekends.
