Vehicle control system
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- displaying, by a computing system, a target run curve that identifies target rotation rates of a vehicle shaft at corresponding times during an anticipated vehicle race, at least some of the target rotation rates different from each other;
receiving, by the computing system, first user input that specifies a first range of rotation rates below the target run curve to which a first correction to increase an actual rotation rate of the vehicle shaft is to be applied upon determining that the actual rotation rate of the vehicle shaft during an actual race falls within the first range of rotation rates;
receiving, by the computing system, second user input that specifies a level of the first correction that is to be applied to the vehicle shaft upon determining that the actual rotation rate of the vehicle shaft during the actual race falls within the first range of rotation rates;
displaying, by the computing system, an indication of the first range of rotation rates concurrent with displaying the target run curve;
providing, by the computing system, data that identifies the first range of rotation rates and the level of correction to a device that is configured to;
(i) determine that the actual race has begun,(ii) measure the actual rotation rate during the actual race, and(iii) request the level of the correction upon determining that the actual rotation rate falls within the first range of rotation rates.

Abstract
In general, the subject matter described in this disclosure can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for performing vehicle control. Multiple target rotation rates for a vehicle shaft may be identified. A first actual rotation rate may be determined to exceed a first target rotation rate. In response, a computing system may send a first signal in order to cause a first component of a vehicle to limit the rate of rotation of the vehicle shaft. A second actual rotation rate may be determined to be below a second target rotation rate. In response, the computing system may send a second signal in order to cause the first component of the vehicle or a second component of the vehicle to increase the rate of rotation of the vehicle shaft.
