Re: Speedo View - Add a decimal place to the Average Speed

Oh, that won't work as the speed classes go up to 120 mph average. So, if you are shooting for 105, you would need to be able to see 104.8 vs 105.2. Both average to 105, but it is important to know how close you are either way, plus or minus. Are you sure you can't fit 105.3? Could the "mph&quo...

Re: Speedo View - Add a decimal place to the Average Speed

The course is over 30 miles long. We use the average speed to make sure we are close to our target time as the goal is to hit an average speed for the length of the course. Once we get within a few miles of the end we must use other tools to get more accurate than the average speed from a gps will t...

Speedo View - Add a decimal place to the Average Speed

Could you please either add one decimal place to the Average Speed in the Speedo View or add the option to select one additional decimal place for the Average Speed. (Just like the GPS has the option of 0.0 in the Fix Time.) Currently the average might show 60 MPH, but the rally events I am in, requ...

Re: Rally configuration

Harry:

I would like to do the same thing that devenh has done, but for a different race. Could you please help me with writing the xml file to create the reference lap for my track?

Re: Adding atomic clock and other features for road rally.

Harry, Just to reiterate, the original request around the atomic clock really is not needed, as the lap timer will do all that I need with a manual start. The only feature to be added would be the ability to display the cumulative split time in some fashion and blinking of the total time for a few s...

Re: Adding atomic clock and other features for road rally.

Harry, That might be a good option if the current lap blinks for a bit when it hits a split and then continues on much like the current sector field does. It actually would be valuable on any normal track I run as well. Harry: Have you had any luck incorporating this into new features for lap timer?

Re: Adding atomic clock and other features for road rally.

Your minimum speed limit is 20 mph under your target speed. In my class that would be 85 mph, so you cannot just slow down to 30 mph at the finish. Also, using the average speed from a GPS gets you close, but you must use some timing system to get closer. So far, I have only found one gps that gives...

Re: Adding atomic clock and other features for road rally.

I am not sure how gps buddy works as I haven't tried it, but the ETA idea won't be precise enough as in the last 5 miles of the course you have both straights and curves and cannot hold a steady speed, especially at 105 mph. We need the ability to have check points during the last 5 miles in order t...

Re: Adding atomic clock and other features for road rally.

Harry: You are correct that the "go once the car is moving" will not be anywhere close to accurate enough. I have time to wait as the next race will not be until next August. As far as the splits go, we would use the racers view which gives you the "Current Sector", but I know th...
