Topic: Recommendation for in car lap timer with pit-to-driver communication?
Hi everyone,
We want to have a lap timer on a phone in the in car so drivers can pace themselves over the course of their session without the pit calling in to them on the radio.
Additionally, we need pit-to-driver messaging ability to be able to send messages to the lap timer that the driver can see (such as "pit in 10 laps" or "target lap time: 1:58 - slow down!"), for backup communication.
It seems that the RaceCapture app by Autosport Labs does all this, but it requires hundreds of dollars of telemetry hardware that we don't need.
Does anyone know if RaceCapture can run in "standalone" mode, without the expensive hardware? (Presumably using the phone's GPS for lap tracking and cellular modem for data.)
Alternatively, does anyone know of a program that has these two features?
Thanks!
