I still have a bad CAN connection (long story), so dealing with that has caused me lots of a pain, but that one's on me. when it works, it's conveniently set-and-forget. Many times it's a very different car (read, a miata), but you can still learn a lot even from that.
One of the ways I've improved the most is asking someone more experienced something like "Hey, I'm trying to break 1:XX, happen to have data around that pace?". Most of the racers / fast people have a ton of data at a lot of paces and don't mind sharing it. That's really the big one and the main reason I got one too. everyone around me seems to use some AiM datalogger (various solos, dedicated dashes, etc). I run a SOLO 2 DL, but no Smart圜am (I use a GoPro + RaceRender for overlays instead). I'm presently re-reading it in case I get the Solo 2 DL. It's only ~140 pages, so it's a fairly quick read. It's written in plain English and has plenty of illustrations that help get the author's points across.

The title is Making Sense of Squiggly Lines, and it provides an excellent grounding in how to use data to improve your driving. There's also a book out that I've found very useful for learning the basics of data analysis.

The vendors I've bought from and/or interacted with and can recommend are:Įach knows the product well and is deep into analyzing data for driver improvement. AiM also provides support in the form of youtube videos.

The analysis software that AiM provides isn't always intuitive, and having a resource that can quickly answer your occasional question will more than pay for itself in time saved and insight gained. That's still useful, but it won't show the degree to which trail-braking/steering is being employed, forcing the analyst to use g-forces to try teasing that out.īefore shopping on price, I'd recommend looking for a vendor who will willingly provide the support you'll need if you think you'll get serious about analyzing your data.
It may do that, but at present I'm assuming it logs braking as on/off. I believe the Solo 2 DL will do all of those with the exception of braking in psi. Ideally, you'd have a device that records these channels: vehicle speed, RPM, throttle (as a percentage), brake pedal (in psi of pressure), steering (in degrees of angle), and lat/long g-forces.

I've never been to one but have heard from other drivers that they're good. AiM also has a roving trainer who provides classroom training seminars. The following document lists the data channels provided by each connection, with section 4.1 listing the OBD II channels and section 4.2 the CAN bus channels. That connection provides you with more data channels and will enable you to do a more complete job when analyzing your on-track performance. If you're going to get into data analysis, I'd recommend having the Solo 2 DL wired into the CAN bus rather than plugging it into the OBD II port. I've used an AiM Solo for predictive lap timing during time trials and found it to be a reliable unit. I'm considering getting one of these units but have yet to pull the trigger. It sounds like a very well-integrated and convenient solution, but I'd like to hear about any personal experiences out there with running this setup.Īnyone care to share their experiences? Also, does anyone know if a supporting vendor offers the SOLO 2 DL at a decent discount over the typical online price of $699? It's an expensive setup, so if I can save some money with a discount, I'm all for that. The SOLO 2 DL + Smart圜am supposedly starts recording lap times and logging data + recording video automatically just by entering the track and can all run on 1 power source being the OBDII connection to the car's ECU. for Harry's Lap Timer, I'd rather just invest in a dedicated solution that will always be mounted in front of me in my car and ready to go whether I remembered to take my phone with me or not.
Rather than starting to invest in external GPS sensors, action cam, etc. Basically, I'm tired of fumbling with Harry's Lap Timer on my iPhone and forgetting to start the session or thinking I started it only to find out there were no lap times recorded after I'm done with a session. I like how it has built-in GPS + accelerometer and can integrate with their (very expensive) purpose-built video camera and OBDII plug for ECU telemetry. Very interested in this product for an always-on lap timer solution on track days.
