So I'm fed up with messing around with Harry's lap timer.

I'm looking for something that can be fitted to the car permanently and offer lap timing, predictive lap times, data logging and control of a video camera.

Something like the Aim Solo + Smartycam is the kind of solution I'd be looking for, but the price of the cameras make it a bit too pricey.

Ideally, I'd like something that can start and stop a go pro.

Any suggestions?

I hate inelegant solutions, though.

Now I don't mind creating my own overlay for videos, but what I do hate is matching up data to video and turning multiple things on for each session, as I always either forget to turn the go pro on at the beginning or off at the end!

Harry's ability to start/stop the go pro is epic, but it's weak as a data logger.

I don't think GPS data logging covers everything I want.

I want real-time lap timing including predictive timing.

I think I either have to deal with turning on an AIM Solo and Go pro separately or cough up for their camera.
