Does the Ti got OBDII in US or how do you get the accelerometer in the overlay on the video? in Europe we do not got OBDII in the Ti and i do not know how to get this in the overlay without it.

My new personal best is a 2:28.3, gopro battery died during that session though. Video of an earlier session is below. I have a bad habit of not committing to the throttle through the exit of a turn. The car has plenty of grip and doesn't oversteer, I just need to stay in it and go.

Next event will be CMP in May.


Solid stuff Dave!

I use a Bluetooth obd2 scanner and the racechrono app on my phone. Then use race render software to overlay onto the video.

Something like an aim solo would be better, the phone's gps doesnt really update fast enough for reliable speed info.

So there is obd 2 in your Ti:s?
For lap time the internal gps
Is 100% correct but for curbspeeds and placement on the track you need an external gps. Cost like 50 to 100 dollar

Its similar to the torque app, that just displays the car info. Racechrono uses the obd info as an input while it records the gps data so that everything is synced up. If you mount the phone to the dash you can have lap times and predictive stuff from racechrono, I usually just put it in my pocket and let it run.

Yeah '96+ tis have obd2 in the US. I'd rather get an aim solo than an external gps.

I got lucky and found a pair of old kirkey deluxe road race seats on craigslist. Driver seat is 16", passenger is 18". I made custom seat mounts.

For those that didn't see my update on my build thread, I dusted off the cobwebs and did my first autox since October.

Pretty good. I usually run 2:28 - 2:30 myself. Maybe I got a lucky 2:26 once.
I lost all my Trackmaster data.

Was at CMP last weekend, really fun track, I think I like it more than Summit Main. It was a 5.5hr drive for me though, probably at the limit of my comfort range.

Did a 2:01.7 with a 2:00.3 possible. Going to go for my HPDE3 check ride at the next event and start building the car towards TTE/PTE.

Edit - Oh and I repacked my remus exhaust (props to Ced back in the day). The resonator was completely burnt out, packed it with FMF 4 stroke motorcycle packing and it made the exhaust soooo much less droney. If you listen to my previous VIR video you can hear a ringing at high rpm, that's gone in the new video. I also tossed on PFC08 pads, they stop real nice...

That does look like a fun track Dave. 3:73 gears? Exhaust sounds great too.
