It was amusing from a spectator standpoint to watch you pull out to the pit lane every other lap in (I think it was) race1, because you kept catching the other cars. (Though probably not amusing from a timed lap standpoint.) I saw Kevin radar you once at 122, and that was when you were starting to brake because you were running into traffic again.
Did you talk to anyone yet about session timing? I would think the PDX groups could be getting their briefing/chalk talk while Time Trials could have a practice session first thing. The problem may be that we were depending on a number of Time Trials participants to also be instructors, so that may have presented too much of a bottleneck.  |
I got a G2X (made by RacePak, but they're owned by MSD Ignition these days). I was torn between the G2X. the DL-1, and one other entry level deal (I can't remember the name off hand...). I went with the G2X because it seems to do just about everything the DL-1 does, but has a display included (the DL-1 display is a $900 option!!). The drawback is that the DL-1 does logging of additional sensors for cheaper, but I really just wanted G-forces, GPS position, and in-car lap times.
So far, it's not bad. The software could be improved (but I think that about everything since I'm in the business). It was pretty easy to install and setup, and it's got lap time, tach, GPS speedo, gear indicator and shift lights all right in front of the steering wheel.
