02Overview
What Salzburgring is like to drive.
The full circuit layout at Salzburgring is 2.62 miles with 9 corners worth setting up for. A generic track-day car in our model brakes hard 8 times a lap and is at full throttle for about 60% of the distance; the longest straight runs roughly 4449 ft.
3 of the corners are slow (under 50 mph in the model), 1 are fast (over 75 mph). There are hairpins where exit speed matters more than entry. The corner notes below come from the mapped geometry, not from local knowledge; we’ll add a researched guide for Salzburgring 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 data for this track isn’t loaded yet.
04Corner by corner
The corners at Salzburgring.
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.

Schikane
↰ LeftslowchicaneTRACK numbering
A slow left-hand chicane that turns about 185°, tightening to a radius of roughly 9 m (30 ft). The model car brakes for about 190 m (623 ft), from 136 to 38 mph. The computed line turns in from the right side, takes an early apex, about 60 m before the geometric apex, and lets the car run out to the right on exit.

A slow right-hand kink that turns about 28°, tightening to a radius of roughly 57 m (187 ft). The model car brakes for about 195 m (640 ft), from 136 to 38 mph. The computed line turns in from the left side, takes an early apex, about 35 m before the geometric apex, and lets the car run out to the left on exit.

Nocksteinkehre
↱ RightmediumhairpinTRACK numbering
A medium right-hand hairpin that turns about 202°, tightening to a radius of roughly 32 m (105 ft). The model car barely brakes here, carrying about 50 mph: a lift or a confident throttle balance. The computed line turns in from the left side, takes a late apex, about 5 m after the corner’s geometric apex, and lets the car run out to the left on exit.

05Time it with TRACK
Drive Salzburgring. TRACK knows where you are.
No setup and no transponder. Start a session in the paddock and TRACK recognises Salzburgring 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 Salzburgring, 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
Salzburgring, answered.
How long is Salzburgring?
The mapped centerline of Salzburgring is 2.62 mi (4.22 km) in OpenStreetMap. Published lengths are measured differently, so small differences are normal.
Which direction does Salzburgring run?
The main mapped layout runs clockwise, from one-way tagging in OpenStreetMap. Check the event’s driver briefing: some venues run reverse-direction days.
Can I time laps at Salzburgring with my phone?
Yes, with the TRACK iPhone app (beta). It recognises Salzburgring 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 Salzburgring?
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 Salzburgring?
Clubs and organizers list HPDE, track days and club races on MotorsportReg. The venue’s own calendar (also linked) lists its events too. TRACK doesn’t list events itself.
Where can I stay near Salzburgring?
This page lists hotels, campgrounds, restaurants, fuel and parts stores near Salzburgring from OpenStreetMap, with straight-line distances. Book early for big event weekends.
