If you’re new to iRacing or unfamiliar with the term “BLAP,” it refers to a “Best Lap” or the fastest lap time achieved by a driver during a session or race. 

Learning how to load a BLAP in iRacing can be beneficial for analyzing your performance, comparing lap times with other drivers, and refining your racing strategies.

Step 1: Navigate to Your iRacing Account

To load a BLAP in iRacing, start by logging into your iRacing account using your preferred web browser. 

Ensure that you have access to your account dashboard, where you can view your race history, lap times, and session details.

Step 2: Access Race Results or Session Data

Once logged in, navigate to the section of your account that contains race results or session data. This information is typically accessible through the “Results” or “My Results” tab on your iRacing dashboard. 

Look for the specific race or session where you achieved your Best Lap (BLAP) that you want to load and analyze.

Step 3: Locate Your Best Lap Time

Within the race results or session data, locate your Best Lap time. This is usually displayed alongside other lap times you recorded during the race or session. 

Take note of the lap number or timestamp associated with your Best Lap, as you will need this information to load the BLAP in iRacing.

Step 4: Launch iRacing Simulator

After identifying your Best Lap time and lap number, launch the iRacing simulator on your computer. 

Ensure that your account is logged in, and you have access to the relevant features within the iRacing interface.

Step 5: Enter Practice or Test Session

To load and analyze your BLAP, enter a practice or test session within the iRacing simulator. You can do this by selecting the “Practice” or “Test Session” option from the main menu or race session options. This will allow you to freely navigate the track and review your lap times.

Step 6: Access Session Data

Once you’re in the practice or test session, access the session data or telemetry options within iRacing. 

Look for features or menus that allow you to load specific lap times or view detailed telemetry data, including speed, throttle input, braking points, and cornering behavior.

Step 7: Load Your Best Lap

Within the session data or telemetry options, locate the functionality to load a specific lap time. This may involve entering the lap number or timestamp corresponding to your Best Lap. 

Follow the on-screen instructions or prompts provided by iRacing to successfully load your Best Lap into the session for analysis.

Step 8: Analyze Telemetry Data

Once your Best Lap is loaded into the session, take the time to analyze the telemetry data provided by iRacing. 

Pay attention to key metrics such as lap time, sector times, speed traces, throttle and brake inputs, steering angles, and any performance indicators that can help you understand your driving performance.

Step 9: Identify Areas for Improvement

As you review the telemetry data from your Best Lap, identify areas where you can improve your driving technique and racing lines. 

Look for patterns or discrepancies in your driving behavior that may be affecting your lap times or overall performance on the track.

Step 10: Practice and Implement Changes

After analyzing your Best Lap and identifying areas for improvement, use this knowledge to practice and implement changes in your driving approach. 

Spend time honing your skills, experimenting with different racing lines, braking points, and throttle control strategies to optimize your lap times and race consistency.

Step 11: Repeat Analysis and Refinement

Continuously load and analyze your Best Lap data in iRacing to track your progress and refine your racing strategies. 

Use the feedback and insights gained from each analysis session to fine-tune your driving technique, optimize setup configurations, and achieve better performance results on the track.
