THE TRACK-DAY APP.
BUILT FOR ANDROID.
Afiléon Pitlane keeps lap timing, circuit layouts, personal bests, garage details, setup notes and Afiléon Motorsport in one practical track-day app. The current release is an Android APK and can be installed directly from this website.
Current Android release: v0.1 APK. Because Pitlane is not yet distributed through Google Play, Android will ask you to approve installation from this source.
Your circuit day, in one place.
Pitlane is designed as a useful track companion rather than a copy of the Afiléon Motorsport website.
Automatic lap timing
Start a GPS session once and Pitlane automatically records each completed lap and immediately starts timing the next one at the saved start/finish line.
Tracks & layouts
Select a circuit and layout — such as Brands Hatch Indy or Grand Prix — and keep separate personal bests for each configuration. Custom circuits can also be added.
Top track times
A dedicated Times area is prepared to show approved Top 10 Pitlane laps by circuit and layout. Rankings refresh when an internet connection is available and can remain cached for offline viewing.
Your cars
Save cars, tyres and wheel-torque information for circuit use. Incorrect cars and unwanted lap times can be deleted and entered again.
Works without internet
Core track-day logging is local-first. Losing mobile data does not lock you out of Pitlane; online submissions and leaderboard refreshes wait until connectivity returns.
Motorsport & shop
Follow the Afiléon Motorsport programme, track services and partners from inside Pitlane, with the current shop range covering the Afiléon T-shirt, polo, hoodie, beanie and snapback.
What happens after you tap Download.
An APK is the Android application file itself. It does not need extracting. Tap the downloaded Afileon-Pitlane.apk file and Android's Package Installer will install the app and add Afiléon Pitlane to your app drawer.
If Android displays Install unknown apps or Unknown source, that is expected for an app downloaded directly from a website rather than Google Play. Allow installation for the browser or My Files when prompted, return to the installer, then tap Install.
During this test-release period, Android may refuse to install a newer test build over an older one if the signing certificate differs. If that happens, uninstall the older Pitlane test first. Uninstalling a test build can remove locally stored test data.
Why Pitlane asks for access.
Precise location: required for automatic GPS lap timing, start/finish detection and circuit checkpoint validation. If you do not grant location access, the non-GPS areas of Pitlane can still be used.
Internet: used for update checks, leaderboard refreshes and queued leaderboard submissions. Core local logging remains available offline.
Installation permission: Android may ask the browser or file manager for permission to install this APK. This is an Android security control, not a Pitlane account permission.
Personal timing locally. Shared rankings when connected.
Pitlane separates personal logging from public leaderboard eligibility.
Your own history
GPS and manual sessions can be kept on the device for your own records. You can remove an incorrect time without affecting the rest of the session history.
GPS submissions only
Manual times are never submitted to public rankings. Only eligible automatic GPS-tracked laps can queue while offline and submit once a connection returns. Public submissions are also checked against the verified reference best for that exact circuit layout; a time faster than that reference is rejected.
Lap data, not route history
The full driven GPS trace is not uploaded as leaderboard data. Pitlane is designed to send only the information needed for a lap submission and validation.
Install the Android app.
Download the APK directly to your Android phone. No ZIP file and no extraction are required.
Android 8.0 or later. Public release — v0.1 uses the permanent Pitlane update identity; Android still confirms installation.
