Track day phone mount

[MartinW]

Was thinking about getting a phone mount that would be acceptable for track days and also one of those Bluetooth obd2 sensors that links to your phone so that I can record and time laps etc.

 

What are other people using for this, any recommendations?

Best bet is to get Harrys Lap Timer app, it also can do video, however most track days dont like timing equipment so keep it on the video screen till you are back in where you can view the data.

Resurrecting my old thread as I've now got a camera mount that I'm happy with so thought I'd share in case it helps someone else.

Tbh I would probably spend a little more and get a metal one but this seems ok

Would strongly advise avoiding the cheap ones here as they aren't fast enough to transmit all of the data in real time, Google for Harry's lap timer sensor compatibility for a list of other recommendations.

 

Also using Harry's lap timer app petrol head edition.

 

Here are the results: 

 

 

Only issue I seem to have is that it doesn't appear to be picking up properly how much / when I'm braking so will have to play around with it a bit more to see if I've set something up wrong in the app
