Free Lap Timer for your phone
zilspeed - 1/8/09 at 07:46 PM

We all like free stuff and this seems pretty cool.

I've just got a new phone - Nokia 5800 and it runs on the Symbian OS for which you can download free apps.

One of the free ones is Race Chrono

It works via GPS and if your local track isn't already in it, you can drive the track and input it as a new one. As well as timing it also traces your lines as well.

Just worth mentioning I thought.

I have the same phone and have this running on it too. I am really impressed with it.

Does that mean you could record your favourite bit of quiet twisty road as a track too?

Is anything like this available for the iphone?

Yep.

A hillclimb track is no more than a bit of quiet twisty road - Harewood is already on there as a track.

definately going to have this downloaded - my business phone is due for upgrade at the end of the month too, so something with a nice big screen is in order...

Had a wee test flight earlier.

Quite cool

I'm waiting for the new Sony Ericsson Satio so I hope it will run Race Chrono!!! If not, I'll be back to a Nokia!
