LevelRacer

LevelRacer

Race your friends to max level! Create or join leveling races with real-time XP tracking, animated replays, and interactive graphs. See who hits 90 first in the Midnight expansion.

How It Works

Create a race and share the key with friends. LevelRacer automatically tracks everyone's XP, level, and play time — broadcasting updates in real-time across realms via Battle.net.

Getting Started:

• /lr create — Create a new race (set a name and password)
• /lr join — Opens a dialog where you can paste a race key to join
• /lr — Toggle the main window

Joining a Race:  When someone creates a race, they get a shareable key. To join, either:

• Have the race creator whisper you the key — then click the Join button in the LevelRacer window and paste it
• Or type /lr join and paste the key directly into the popup dialog

Race Management

The race creator can stop the race, kick or block participants, and assign co-managers. Race keys are password-protected and shareable. Multiple simultaneous races are supported with a dropdown selector.
