Trackday - Snetterton 14th June

[TV8]

Some impressive cornering! 1 g at the corner at the end of the main straight earns you the big cahoonas award! Scary corner that one!

Thank you very much for organising Stewart, much appreciated. Another great track day and despite the bad weather forcast stayed mainly dry.

Sprint article would be a great shout, might encourage some others to join us since the TVRCC do not seem to want to organise track days anymore. Ping me a PM if you would like a hand with it, I didn't take any pictures myself but I might be able to dig out some screen grabs from the video footage with other TVRs in shot if that would be of any use.

The last session I finally found my grove and after many silly mistakes on previous laps I finally managed to piece together a semi decent run clear of any traffic. Got a lap time of 02:24.66 with an average speed of 73.8MPH which considering my ham fists I was pleased with, video below:

What software / camera setup are you using to get all that info on the screen?

Harry's Lap Timer app running on an iPhone and for overlay.
GoPro 4 Silver
RaceLogic Vbox sport (iPhone GPS sensor is a bit laggy)

If you have a Windows phone as well as the rest, look at Track Attack.

Not bought it yet but looks interesting.

Tried uploading some photos to bucket but doesn't want to play ball. Obviously not a problem with bucket, must be my computer or internet connection which makes loading this impossible.

The photos came out ok so will write a few words and bundle it up to TVRCC headquaters.

Might be worth giving it another go after the football is finished. The internet is probably being hammered at the moment with people live streaming the England game.

Did you happen to get any of mine?

Got ones of each of the Tivs - stationary and in motion.

ok, so I went to Zolder and filmed on a gopro 3+ and used harry's laptimer. Now how do I merge the footage and the data? Can't seem to find out how. I wanted it to do automatically, but it seems the version I bought to do it says I can't and need to upgrade.... Very annoying as I only bought it to do this. On what planet would you not want to record the video too?? Had it been clear I would have got the GrandPrix version from the get go. Anyway, too late now as I was there when I discovered it.
