I read that you are working on a predictive lap timer to be released soon. What is the current time table?
But first, your product is outstanding and should be a purchased app. Perhaps to make it easier to manage, your previous version (with less features) would be the free app. The free app is important because without it I would not have tried RaceChrono.
My setup is RaceChrono in a Samsung Galaxy Player (a discontinued non-phone 5" tablet) talking to RaceDac and Qstarz BT1000EX. It's mounted on the steering wheel of my Formula Vee. I'm still working on signal conditioning and programming RaceDac but I'm getting the speed, G loading, O2 readings, oil temp and pressure. Still working on RPM signal, and eventually CHT.
A couple of requests that I would like to see:
- The predictive lap timer output as the top item on the timing output screen. It's difficult to read the bottom line because of line of sight with my helmet on.
- Move the last sector time to the top and make it sticky, rather than reverting to current elapsed time. My sectors are always in the braking zone because I want to know how the previous corner helped or hindered my time to the next corner. Elapsed time is useless to me; I can barely remember to check the readout let alone remembering how fast I was the last lap at any point on the track.
- Continued support for data analysis on the PC. I haven't worked with it too much, but it seems that you are dropping support for the PC as far as the interactive graphics. If you can't continue development on that, are there (reasonably) priced programs that will give visual analysis of your exported data on the PC?
Thanks for the product.

I have some plans to make the timer screen configurable, but I cannot yet say when I will have the time to work on it.
Unfortunately I do not have future plans for the PC version anymore. I'm sorry to say it would just be too much of a resource drain to continue that. If I will do something outside mobile, it will be probably some kind of web based tool. I'm nowadays recommending RaceLogic Circuit Tools as PC tool and Serious-Racing.com as web based solution.
