Data logger and predictive lap timing display in one. VBOX LapTimer provides instant driver feedback, helping you find valuable improvements in lap times.
Data logging at 10 times per second for later analysis with our intuitive software.
Predictive lap timing has been available for some time, but traditional methods have generally relied on a distance measurement (normally from a wheel speed sensor input) for calculation.
However, distances almost always change from lap to lap: either by trying different lines, overtaking other cars, or perhaps by locking a wheel. Predicting a lap time accurately using this variable is nearly impossible, and is exacerbated on longer circuits.
We employ GPS position from a fast updating data logger - rather than distance - to align the reference and comparison laps. This means our lap time stays accurate, even if the driver takes a different line each lap. The system will maintain 0.1s precision the entire way around any circuits, including very long circuits such as the Nurburgring or Spa.
Position based delta-T is far superior to distance on long tracks.
VBOX LapTimer has different display modes which can be accessed using the UP and DOWN buttons on the front panel. The data on each screen is calculated at all times, even if it is not displayed.
The Predictive Lap Timing display (Delta Time) gives you an invaluable insight into how your current lap time compares with your fastest lap time. In addition, the high brightness color LEDs give an indication of your SPEED relative to your FASTEST LAP.
This video shows how comparing speeds at the same points on the track compared to previous laps (Delta Velocity) can help accelerate the learning process.
VBOX LapTimer has the option to show font as a high contrast outline or inverse screen colors for use in different light conditions.
Circuit Tools is designed by racing drivers for racing drivers, with none of the complexity normally associated with data analysis software.
The software will automate many tasks and give you all the information required to improve lap times.
The fastest lap from your latest session is automatically chosen and displayed on the graph window.
You can compare runs from your latest session, or from different days, drivers or sessions simply by importing them and clicking on the relevant lap time shown in the session window.
