Track day at Gingerman
Track day at Gingerman
Finally got Harry's Laptimer video overlay to work again with the GoPro footage and all the accessory sensors ... here's a lap from the Northwoods Shelby event at Gingerman in May ...

Very nice video, and looks like you were enjoying yourself.
I really wanted to like HLT, and got the ODBII wireless dongle and external GPS (same as the one you have be the looks of it). I just could not get it to be reliable. When it worked, it was great, but just not often enough. Sometimes the GPS would not connect, another time the phone would get so hot it would shut off because it was connected two sensors. I saw the GPS sliding around on your dash in the video, and I was trying to overcome that problem as well. The best solution I had was tying it down to shelf behind the back seats, but then it would not want to connect as reliably to the phone, etc.
When I switched from the iPhone to a Galaxy s5, I was really excited as it was a "more powerful phone" and I was hoping for improvement. My first time out, HLT crashed, deleted itself along with all the data. It was at that point I threw in the towel and got a AIM SmartCam HD and Solo DL. I will be using it this weekend and will share thoughts on it next week.
But if you have the "magic touch" to make it all work together reliably, it is a great and very affordable solution. I like the way you set the overlays up too.

Nice, thanks for sharing. And yo drive like a gentleman. You could be on the bumper of the guy in front of you with no problem but you leave just enough space so that he sees he should let you pass but without making it dangerous for any of you (I got rear ended by a complete @sshole and got more sensitive to this since then).
