According to the [[Fifth Doctor]], time tracks were to [[time]] what parallel [[dimension]]s were to [[spacetime]], running side by side like grooves on a record. Travel along the groove and time progressed or regressed in a linear fashion, but skipping a groove meant the distance travelled increased or decreased exponentially. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aquitaine (audio story)|Aquitaine]]'') [[Compassion]] considered the record analogy - and by extension the term "skipping a time track" - to be overly simplistic explanations.

[[Susan Foreman]] suspected that the echoes who inhabited the [[Tick-Tock World]] were time travellers who had jumped time tracks.

The [[Ninth Doctor]] and [[Rose Tyler]] chased a [[Chula ambulance]] through the [[Time Vortex]]. It began jumping time tracks and the Doctor lost it for a while which caused it to jump ahead of the TARDIS. He managed to find where it landed and believed it to only have landed, at maximum, a month before he and Rose arrived.
