I am not so sure the magnet is strong enough to keep that thing on the roof. Honestly lots of guys just toss them in the cup holder. Motorcycle guys are known for just keeping it in their pocket. I have done the cup holder a few times, even left it on the passenger seat before, and not personally noticed any discrepancies or inconsistencies in the data. It doesnt seem to matter much. But when I am serious about it, I put it in my rear deck spot I mentioned, just in case it effects the numbers.

Now that we are talking about it, I want to try it with a good phone mount. I have wondered if the Dragy uses the phones accelerometers for some of the data. If it does, having the phone mounted rigid might reduce some of the waviness in my acceleration G graph that could perhaps be the result of me holding the phone thus dampening the acceleration G and making it wavy as my arm moves around.
