GridPass
Unified digital vehicle passports, member paddock credentials, and verified trackside identity ecosystem.
GridPass is the decentralized machine passport and paddock identity ecosystem connecting vehicles, drivers, race tracks, and automotive businesses. Moving beyond static paper titles and fragmented build threads, every vehicle receives a permanent digital GridPass documenting verified modifications, dynamometer charts, maintenance logs, race entries, and ownership provenance. Drivers carry verified member passports that double as scannable trackside credentials and mobile payment wallets across participating venues.
