btw, what kinda laptimes do you get at The Ridge? and at Pacific Raceways if you go there too?

 

Don't worry, I am slow. I just go for fun. Plus I am still on stock engine & turbo.

 

oh come on, you can pm me if you don't wanna post your times on here...

 

Just over the 2min at the ridge. I hope to break the 2 min mark next time out with my new suspension.

 

my best is a 2:05.99

1:42 at pacific raceways

times with Harry's laptimer with no gps dongle, iirc their website says its accurate to .2 second like that

 

It should be. I used the free version with a transponder at Buttonwillow Raceway. It was closer than .2, if I remember right.

 

isn't it like .01 with the transponder?

 

my mistake. i mean that i rented a transponder from the track to compare to the app's times. it was SUPER close.

 

oh I see what you mean. I think what they mean my .2 the phone only samples gps data at a certain rate, so the times it gives are +/- .2, or they can be right on...

I think I'll be buying a dongle for next year because I get glitches with it fairly often. sometimes it'll just freeze my location on track, other times it'll pause and then catch up...

look at my position on track at 2:12
look at my speed in this vid at 0:38

I load my gps data into race logic's free analsys software, so its nice to actually have the data

 

i didn't know about a dongle. i'll have to look that up. sounds like a good feature to have.

 

is this thread being hijacked by rev head track guys??? lol

 

lolwut

 

I have used Harrys with and without external GPS and the sample rate is night and day difference. The MPH differences once you get to triple digits go way off with the internal GPS.

Internal iPhone 5 GPS on left, External 10Hz GPS on right:



I use a SkyPro XGPS160. It's nice and tiny and able to be placed pretty much anywhere.

 

is there a way to overlay speed instead of g's? I played with it a little but gave up.... cause i'm lazy sometimes...

 

all the GPS setups i find are only for iPhone. anyone have one for Android?
