The application serves as a centralized hub to track multi-driver events, compare performance across different car classes, and view real-world stage locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This project is the successor to an earlier version of mine, which was built from scratch as a &#8220;raw&#8221; PHP application and could only ever store a single best time per stage. The new version has been completely rebuilt on Laravel, bringing a far more capable data model and unlocking an entirely new feature called <em>event management<\/em>. Users can now start a full event \u2014 for example a head-to-head between two drivers \u2014 where every stage time driven during that event is written to the stage_times-table. From this table, the app automatically calculates cumulative times, time gaps between drivers, and pulls the best times through into the leaderboard view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_1_1920x1080.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"865\" src=\"https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_1_1920x1080-1024x576.png\" alt=\"EA WRC - Playstation Game Results Tracker\" class=\"wp-image-865\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_1_1920x1080-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_1_1920x1080-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_1_1920x1080-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_1_1920x1080-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_1_1920x1080.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_2_1920x1080.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"866\" src=\"https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_2_1920x1080-1024x576.png\" alt=\"EA WRC - Playstation Game Results Tracker\" class=\"wp-image-866\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_2_1920x1080-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_2_1920x1080-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_2_1920x1080-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_2_1920x1080-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_2_1920x1080.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_3_1920x1080.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"867\" src=\"https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_3_1920x1080-1024x576.png\" alt=\"EA WRC - Playstation Game Results Tracker\" class=\"wp-image-867\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_3_1920x1080-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_3_1920x1080-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_3_1920x1080-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_3_1920x1080-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/nnmaki.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/eawrc2026_3_1920x1080.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Features<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Event Management:Start a new multi-stage rally event, select a specific rally country, input competing drivers, and select their respective cars\/classes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dynamic Time Entry (Auto-Advance): Entering stage times is fast and seamless.
