Free Gps Lap Time Software For Phones

[justin911]

has anyone tried this with the 1/4 mile timer ?

[Duncan]

ran this the other day at Oran Park, results were excellent. Lap times were spot on to track's dorian timing (to 1/10th). corner speed analysis is great and not too complex for my simple brain.

And they have now added Oran Park to track downloads too.

i was running the 6110 with an external receiver (the one they recommend on the racechrono website, qstars somethignorother)

I use the 'holux m1000' bluetooth gps. its $70 or so including postage on ebay. You'll also be able to use tomtom and all the other programs which dont like nokias gps.

Is this receiver the one that uses the older style nokia battery?

How long does the battery last on it, have heard that a lot of them die pretty quickly.

[justin911]

with the holux m1000 the battery lasts for 17 hours. It comes with a usb and a car charger also

awesome, looks like I have something to buy for the N95. sweet.

[guesty]

I bought a N95 while i was overseas last month. just waiting on my GPS to arrive from ebay.

[Duncan]

the gps I got has a little nokia like battery, but I've hardwired the power into the car acc power anyway.

data logging stuff is fun...comparing any 2 laps for instance, I did 2 laps in a row at 1.21.7 but they were quite different in places, looks like a 1.20.x should have been on the cards to me

[justin911]

hmmmm.... hardwired the power you say.. thats quite ingenious.

do you need resistors (or some other type of electrical stuff i know nothing about) ?? or can u just hook up the wiring and off you go ? mines also got the nokia style battery.

Any chance of posting up some of the data? Just so we can see the sort of output these things generate.

i think nmea files only let you export into google maps and those sorts of things...

http://www.gonmad.co.uk/nmea.php try input half of your file into it.

Well I had a fiddle - even messed about with the data. Anyway - Oran Park by the look of the X-Y plot...

I am having a bit of trouble sorting out the logging rate & the distances. The disparity between the min & max speed is too great. can you give me an idea of what they are & I may be able to post you the speed trace & the longitudinal gees trace.

Now, tell everyone about the off......

hey does the racechrono thing work on the 6110 navigator? i dowloaded the program now how do i put it on my phone? usb transfer? how do i run it on my phone? cheers

[R32Big_boy]

6110's need an external GPS to run via bluetooth. About $50 off teh ebay's. You need to download it then save it into your application folder on your phone.

[FLYGTR]

yes there is a much cheaper way to get accurate lap times. buy a mychron light TG for about $350.

Duncan can you get these for $350 still in victoria?

me and ferni went to PI last weekend and tested this out with my 1hz GPS and it worked a treat.

We used it along side ferni's mychron AIM timer and it was within 0.2 sec...i think hes gonna sell the mychron now haha

Just ordered 5hz GPS so should be even more accurate now.

awesome program...helps a lot and good to compare lines, etc as well.

can export to google/csv straight from the phone.

[ferni]

One reason i liked it, is it showed i was about 30k/h faster through most of the corners than you Semi's FTW haha.... pity i'm up for a new set tho

[evade]

you do have the faster..modfied..car haha so u should be heaps faster

im gonna find some semis next and see how much the improvement is..that'll be good to compare
