Custom Telemetry Overlays. Any Lap. Any Session.

Race Ninja's built-in video editor lets you create custom telemetry overlays on your GoPro or DJI racing footage. Choose which data channels to display, position them where you want, and export a polished video. It all renders on cloud servers so you can do it from your phone at the track between sessions.

We've significantly enhanced the built-in video editor in Race Ninja and I'm really happy with where it's landed.

You already get a full analysis pack from every upload. Telemetry traces, braking points, racing lines, Perfect Lap, Head to Head comparisons, and all the data you need to actually understand where your time is coming from.

But now the video side is just as powerful.

You can build fully customisable telemetry overlays for your footage. Entire sessions or individual laps, your choice. Pick what data you want on screen. Speed, GPS trace, braking points, throttle position, lap times, sector splits, g-forces. Position it where you want it. Style it how you want it. Then export a clean video ready to share.

And because it's all happening in the cloud on our Google Cloud servers, it's fast. You can pull footage off your GoPro or DJI at the track, upload it, get your analysis done while the kart's being cleaned and checked, and have a polished overlay video ready to post to socials before the next session even starts.

This is what it's built for. Grassroots motorsport moving at the speed of the paddock. No expensive hardware, no powerful laptop, no hours of manual video editing after the event. Just your camera, Race Ninja, and the time between sessions.

Whether you want to study your own driving, share your Perfect Lap with your team, or build content for your socials straight off the track, it's all there now.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you add telemetry overlays to GoPro racing footage?
Yes. Race Ninja's video editor lets you build custom telemetry overlays on any lap or full session. Speed, GPS trace, braking points, g-forces, lap times, sector splits. Pick what you want, position it where you want, then export.
How long does it take to generate a racing video overlay?
It's fast because the rendering happens on Google Cloud servers, not your phone or laptop. Upload at the track, get your analysis, build your overlay, and have it ready to post before the next session starts.
Do you need video editing software for motorsport overlays?
No. Race Ninja has a built-in video editor that does it all in the browser. No After Effects, no DaVinci Resolve, no powerful computer. Just pick your data channels, style it, and export.
