seems a good wee toy (sounds a bit like the diplays in R34 R35 GTRs) but is missing one of the main parts of the VBOX/Performance box - laptiming and data analysis

Mine arrived this morning!
Where is that from?
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/260861262681
That is mine, probably paid a bit too much but cheaper than retail.

Stu - you still got that data?
I'm just having a look at some of the performance junk for the Impreza/Skyline
At Ingliston sprint there is a tight hairpin thats taken around 20mph to VMAX of about 85mph.
Some quick times for
30-50mph
Impreza - 1.48s
Skyline - 1.28s
30-70mph
Impreza - 3.86s
Skyline - 2.65s
50-70mph
Impreza - 1.87s
Skyline - 1.37s
Braking: 80-30mph
Impreza = 2.40s in 55.51m
Skyline = 2.76s in 63.86m

hehehe, these googleearth overlays are actually quite good.
Chris - do you remember comparing entry speeds to the long sweeping curve at Anglesey. Fee's slow entry but 132+ top speed in the green trace. The other traces are from laps about 0.5s slower. She was going in about 15mph faster and just had nae grip.... UNDERSTEER!!!

Cant do anything in circuit tools, but performance tools works point to point (using 2nd or seperate finish)

I need to get some data in mine, might do a 0-60 run in the Disco for giggles. See if it's faster than a Corsa while towing a Corsa.
