Deacon 1357 Report post Posted May 25, 2017 I wasn't really sure where to put this thread so of a mod thinks it should be elsewhere feel free to move it! Anyone else use Harry's Lap Timer? I'm going to try it out at Blyton Park on Saturday as the data it generates seems really good (although obviously not for directly timing laps as that's not allowed). It seems pretty complex though and I wondered if anyone had any tips? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ade 517 Report post Posted May 25, 2017 @Rich196 I've got it installed by yet to give it a try. I get too excited at the track just wanting to get on circuit and drive, I forget to turn on apps on my phone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was my problem at Oulton when I'd meant to try it originally! 1 Ade reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rich196 103 Report post Posted May 25, 2017 Easy or as complex as you like. I use the Rookie version. For me this is the way I use it: Set it up, by defining the user: enter name and car. Load the track. This is done by a simple search. Press drive. This will now take you the timing screen. At the top it will tell you the status. You want it to tell you its ready. This means it has a good GPS lock. Once it is ready put it in a phone cradle or door pocket out of sight. I put it in the door pocket. Then I forget about it. Don't want to chase lap times and a gravel trap. During the day or after go to the menu and select analysis or lap list. You can then review you lap times and data from through out the day. You can get really complicated with logging data from a OBD dongle and over laying video but I dont bother. 1 Deacon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deacon 1357 Report post Posted May 25, 2017 Cheers @Rich196 that's really helpful. I did wonder about just door pocketing it arresting the phone while I'm on track - you've not had any problems with the app doing that then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No I haven't i think you need to leave the screen unlocked though. 1 Deacon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
