The VRC Practice ground has been upgraded with an option to measure the acceleration times of your cars using different setups like fuel mixture, gearing, 2-speed and clutch settings, anything that may affect the acceleration of your car.
The 200m long test strip has 10m marking lines added all the way up to 140m! But the first 50m are most important and the strip timing is therefore divided in sections of 10m for the first 50m, and then a section of 50m. This gives a total test strip length with timing of 100m.
These split times are displayed at the right top of the screen. When returning to the starting line for another test run a longer time is displayed which can of course be ignored.
To compare acceleration results we suggest to make a screen capture of each test run using the 'Print Screen' option on your keyboard. These screenshots are saved in the Screenshots folder at C:\Users\....\documents\Virtual RC Pro\

Another option is to video-record the runs using the Xbox game bar (Windows-Alt-R) and then watch the video and write down time and speed at 10-20-30-40-50-100m.
When doing acceleration tests like for the B and C-compound tires I open the captured video in my video editor and then scroll through the video and write down the speed at these lines passings. I use Excel to compare these results.
