Lap timer and GoPro vids
What are u guys using nowadays to time your lap and overlay GoPro videos? I wanted to use something that has a relatively easy to use interface as I'm not quite a tech savvy. I have read a couple of old threads but thinking maybe people are using different apps now. TIA!

I now use an AIM Solo 2 DL connected to my cars canbus and match up the videos using race render when I get home. It's NOT user friendly. So if you're not tech savvy, this probably isn't a great option. AIM does have a camera that does all of the work for you, but it's expensive, and only 720p/30fps. |

However it is a costly kit being over a grand for a used setup but not having to remember to turn it on, battle battery life, and zero editing to sync up data is a huge step forward.

The other option is the racelogic vbox hd2. But that next level expensive. (close to 3500 for the full setup) |

Good... but not great. Dumb me but I forgot to turn on my mics when this video was taken.

This one has a lot better video quality, but the audio is just straight off the gopro. Also, its from my first trackday weekend in my M2 |

Nice work, good lap time too! You've been improving
I will be back in Michigan in 2021. Looking forward to hitting up Grattan, Gingerman and Mid O again. I still have no idea what will be my track toy when I get back home, but I hope to improve on all my PB lap times. I hope to get into 1:29s at Grattan. Best I managed in my '14 Mustang GT was 1:31.

Thanks! Current plan (banning apocalypse) is end of June. Lots of pieces in play with the re-patriation, so let's hope for the best.

I use a suction cup windshield mount. Not the best but it does work. It seems to be noisy with rattles on bumpy roads, but on track that can't be heard.
