So I've been wanting to record those data overlays you see in some videos with speed, rpm, g, throttle ..... Here's what I did to make it happen. Haven't tried it on the Aston yet. Just a proof of concept on the wife's Jeep. Will have one of the Aston in a week or two. Needed - GoPro, App - TrackAddict, GoPoint OBD reader, RaceRender software, vehicle of choice smile

I like the look of that. I presume it will it work with a motorbike too?

Had enough broken bones for now!

The one in my shoulder still isn't sorted properly grumpy About 80% there according to the doctor, but seriously annoying since it was over 5 months ago!



Certainly enjoying the bikes at the moment though, just got back from riding around Mugello in Italy for a few days! https://youtu.be/3LJGLxmlbkU
Best circuit I've ever been to, I just want a faster bike now!!

Nice clip... looks a lot of fun too. I really need to get on it and sort my bike license out.

Hope the shoulder gets sorted soon as well.

Thank you Steve for your post.

I have downloaded the Android version of the application to my tablet. Pleased to find that this is free software. No time yet to study the full instructions, but it appears that the GPS system will produce some of the data.

Am I correct to say that an OBD connection is only required, to produce engine rpm data, or is there more to it than that?
