Dragy came out with a Lap Timing app and I was surprised how well it’s done. Still in Beta. GoPro support and OBD2 input coming. My video review comparing to the Garmin Catalyst

Great video Danial - as usual! Dragy is an interesting alternative that many will find compelling, so kudos for sharing your experience and results as those will definitely will help others on the hunt for lap timing devices.

Your GT4 sounds really good. I watched your recent video a few weeks ago that you did with Eddie and if I remember correctly, you installed the Fabspeed over axle pipes. Is that correct? Was there any noticeable performance enhancement (I realize it's going to be minor) and have you had any second thoughts regarding droning or other sound detriments in non-track driving?

Thanks!

Hey thanks! I haven’t noticed any performance gains.
Regarding the drone, I did a 150 mile drive recently. Some curves some highway. By the end of the day I was a bit sick of it…. But that’s with valves forced open with the valve controller. I turned it back to stock and it was quite relieving, but as soon as I step on it above 4k rpm it roars to life (no drone in that zone either)

Good to know Danial. I've been contemplating the change just for the fun of it so thank you for that info!

Nice review, I have still not tried the track precision app or oven the sports corono. So far I am just happy to hit the apex :) One day I will have to give a lap timer a try. I have just started to play Gran Turismo and am starting to get used to the idea of a lap timer.
