Speed Car Retrospective Template

Speed Car retro — engine, friction, and how to go faster. Free to run online — live board, anonymous-friendly cards, dot-voting, timers, and action items that follow your team sprint to sprint.

🏁 Engine (what drove us forward)
🛞 Friction (what slowed us)
🧭 Ideas to go faster

A velocity lens: what is our engine, what is friction on the track, and what would make us faster? It aims the whole conversation at flow and delivery speed.

Best for: Delivery-focused teams chasing cycle time, and sprints after a slow release.

How to run it

  1. Open a board and share the invite link — teammates join free with Google or a one-time email code.
  2. Add cards to each column (5–10 minutes, timer built in), then dot-vote what matters most.
  3. Discuss the top votes and commit action items with owners.
  4. Next retro, the actions come back automatically — done, carry, or drop. That loop is the point.
