Finding a solid iRacing telemetry app that does not cost anything is harder than it should be. TelemetryForge changes that. It is a free Windows beta with live dashboards, lap analysis tools, fuel calculations, and overlay support. A developer who actually races in iRacing built it, so the feature set reflects what drivers genuinely need.

The app gives you over 40 live data widgets to work with. You can move, resize, and arrange them however you want. TelemetryForge adjusts to your rig whether you run a single monitor, triples, or a dedicated fourth screen. It also supports local network access, so you can open your dashboard on a phone, tablet, or any device connected to the same network. That makes it easy to keep data visible without cluttering your main display.
For drivers who use overlays while racing, the app supports popout windows. Each overlay stays on top of other applications. You can resize and position them independently, so key readouts stay visible while you are on track.
Lap Analysis and Fuel Strategy
Beyond live readouts, TelemetryForge records your sessions and breaks down your laps in detail. You can review session history by track, date, and lap count. Lap graphs show where your pace is trending, and best-lap highlighting makes it easy to spot your strongest run in a session. Consistency tracking compares your average pace and green lap count across a run, which is useful for identifying where your setup or driving is costing time.
Fuel planning is built in as well. Instead of relying on estimates, TelemetryForge calculates consumption windows from your actual lap data. As a result, your pit stop calls reflect what your car is burning rather than a general average.
The beta is free to download at thetelemetryforge.com and Windows-only for now. The landing page includes a demo video that walks through the interface. If you are on the fence, it is worth watching before you download. Since this is a beta, expect ongoing updates as the developer adds features and refines the app.
For iRacers who want real telemetry without a subscription, TelemetryForge is worth a download. It is free, polished for a beta, and covers most of what drivers need during and after a session.
