GPS, performance meter/ lap timers
Hi,
I'm after a GPS unit with, to be used in cars and on motorbikes.
- Lap timer (100+ lap memory), with at least 3 splits, (with times and speeds)
- Performance meter, with 0-60, 0-100, 0-150, 0-max, 60-150 etc etc, it needs to be able to read upto at least 200mph,
- Accel and cornering G's
- braking speeds, distances and G's.
- and ideally able to log Rpm, and other engine related info.
i'm looking for a new GPS lap timer, as my old beacon sort can be more trouble than its worth getting the beacon out, and in a position it works every time.
I have seen/ briefly used the Racelogic's and Datron stuff on magazine thrash days in 2006-7, but never played with them or seen what they can do fully.
- V box mini,

I've been thinking about the AX22, but it isn't cheap.
Don't know if this is of any interest

Cheers.
i have actually got the Race tech AP22, i brought it in 2002/3, and used it alot and could get it accurate @ the pod with some setting up, but everytime you change the power of the car, it needed setting up. So i haven't used it since 2004, but still have it under the bed in the draw.
