Karting

A few suggestions from using it as a karter. Great logger

1. Increased sample frequency to cope with short tight kart tracks
2. Theoretical Best Lap (The best sector from each lap during a session)
3. Best Rolling Lap
4. Ability to quickly change drivers and vehicles and set-up for each session
5. Include Kart set-up information – gearing, axle widths, carb jetting, engine etc.

I have posted some images and comments on Data logger and lap timer for $5

Great writeup and suggestions. Trackmaster v1.8 will be released near the end of November. I should be able to include most of your suggestions with this release.

Thanks,
Jeff

Bumping this as the ability to determine a jet for your carburetor would be a lovely add-on. Pretty niche, but some karters pay BIG money for sophisticated software to tell them which jet to run based on atmospheric conditions.

It'd be great as an add-on to Trackmaster, or a separate app. Something that pulls local weather conditions and tells you what jet to use would be great.

Another great idea. These types of calculators are easy to include. As with the corner weight calculator, it won't make this release, but the one after that is likely. What kart are you running?

Hey, sorry, didn't see this reply.

I'm running a Rotax 125 engine in a Fullerton chassis:



Lots of fun, but pretty exhausting emoticon
