Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.1 s · 1.2 MBAbout 1.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.7 s29 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.7 s.
Mobile performance score: 33
33/100Your mobile performance score is 33. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 8.4 s
A phone's processor spends 8.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
450 ms · 1.8 MB23 images could be 1.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, monkcommerce.app and Shopify and others), adding 2.3 MB and 1.9 s of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 719 ms
719 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 719 ms of main-thread work and 633 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 286 KiB31 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (286 KiB).
monkcommerce.app adds 369 ms
369 msmonkcommerce.app costs a phone 369 ms of main-thread work and 550 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 103 KiBAbout 103 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 367 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Shopify adds 311 ms
311 msShopify costs a phone 311 ms of main-thread work and 492 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
1,708 HTML elements
The page has 1,708 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Legacy JavaScript
40 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 40 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Duplicated JavaScript
11 KiB11 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.
Minify CSS
6 KiB6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify JavaScript
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

First Contentful Paint: 3.1 s
3.1 sThe first text or image appears after 3.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Tap response (INP) got 32% slower for real visitors
+32%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 113 ms to 148 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.131
0.131The layout shifts by 0.131 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
8 images without width and height
8 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
-5%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.1 s to 2.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 10.1 MB in 353 requests
10.1 MBYour homepage downloads 10.1 MB in 353 requests on a phone: images 6.0 MB (43), scripts 2.7 MB (151) and other files 959 KiB (111). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
5 images over 500 KB
5 images weigh 3.2 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
15 images in older formats
15 images (4.6 MB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
2 images far larger than shown
228 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Homepage_Banner_Mobile_f673ad6c-c6ca-4ec4-bcd7-fa80a4a2d372. at 1,400 px wide, shown at 356 px. Resized copies would save about 228 KiB.
3 images below the first screen load straight away
3 images further down the page (378 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 2.9 g of CO₂ per visit
2.87 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.87 g of CO₂e: 344.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Hidden but focusable
6 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
Interactive controls must not be nested (2 elements)
Interactive controls must not be nested: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
2 images without alt text
2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (5 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
8 links without text
8 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 text elements with low contrast
2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
ARIA toggle fields do not have accessible names
ARIA toggle fields do not have accessible names (1 element).
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (1 element)
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

1 checks passed
48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 61 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 13 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
190 internal links, 24 external
The homepage links to 190 pages on trakracer.com and 24 external pages.

Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://trakracer.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no https://trakracer.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (893 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
https://trakracer.com/pages/alpine-partnership-landing-page-2026 and https://trakracer.com/pages/become-a-reseller have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://trakracer.com/collections/alpine-racing-trx/%3F, whose canonical is https://trakracer.com/collections/alpine-racing-trx. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
3 pages without an H1
https://trakracer.com/pages/alpine-partnership-landing-page-2026, https://trakracer.com/pages/contact-us and https://trakracer.com/pages/become-a-reseller have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
