1/4 mile run with GO Pro on rear

Eighties Meta · 05-05-2013, 08:34 AM

audio is from GO PRO mounted on rear bumper. just thought it would be awesome to combine front and rear video. turned out pretty well.

Looks to be a decent RUN

How's the setup? How many runs did you get in, And what were your final #s?

wasn't my best run, it was a 13.1 at 108.23. Only did 1 run for the day, I went up Friday after work got there at 5pm, did 1 run, there wasn't really anytbody else there except F-body Camaro and BMW's so who wants to talk to those guys

my best is 12.933 I keep switching between standing on the brakes a bit to launch vs just flooring it without brake-standing. I think just flooring it works better because I'll usually run 12.9x something but it just feels like it can be launched harder because I never lose traction. it's a bit confusing, this launch 60ft was 2.0x something, my 12.9s are 1.920 or slifhtly above around 1.950.

That's a nice run.. How do you get the mph and rpm edits in your video? What editing software do you use?

Eighties Meta · 05-05-2013, 08:03 PM

I use scantools.net odb mxlink to plug into odb data port and on the android phone I use AlaprecorderHd because it supports exporting the odb data into racerender format. So video edit and the odb data all that is put together using race render 2 software (free). The smartphone app (alaprecorderhd) the maker is no longer around around so dl the free 1st. The original alaprecorder doesnt support bt odb so if you dont need engine and rpm thats an option. From my use though I really like all the options in alaprecorderhd. I just ordered an external gps at 10hz for bteer split time stuff I want to use at my track day. Dont know if it works with alaprecorderhd yet but it says it supports external bt gps.

With an external gps the speed would be accurate , etc but I really want to have engine rpm, speed and gear info that I cant get with trackmaster, etc. So for me on android alaprecorderhd is my only option.

Very cool! It makes me sad cause I'll never be able to hit the shifts that well, but then I'm not much more than an on ramp attacker.

Damn autos are pretty consistent and tend to run quicker than us mani's.

Nice 60's I haven't been able to cut better than 2.08.
