Going to be @ TMP tomorrow afternoon.

Just got the "TrackMaster" lap timing app by TrackPro for Android... with my phone's built in GPS it should give half-decent lap times, and if I get an external GPS (about $80), pretty damm accurate.

Let's see what happens :D

The only bad part is that I don't have a windshield/GPS mount, so I can't record video directly on my phone and have the datalogging & video sync done easily :/

Updates:

-The Trackmaster app needs a good solid GPS connection - my phone in my cup holder or radio-side container didn't hold a good connection and I couldn't get any lap times. PHone's fault, the app seems pretty good otherwise.
Looks like I'll need to get a proper Bluetooth GPS receiver and windshield suction cup mount for my phone.
-The car felt really good with the Agency Power braided lines from Garm though :D
-Didn't cook the EBC yellow pads either this time, happy about that
-Did get some wheel rub with the 225's... looks like the only 225's that can be fit on an Echo, on any rims/offset, are Hankook RS3's, which are a little narrower than R1R's or Toyo RA1's (RA1's are MONSTERS though).

Also did a few runs down the drag strip - best time was 16.77 @ 83mph with a 2.50 60foot, the track wasn't sticky, it was 9pm and damp, and the -1.5 degree camber and toe out aint helping my launches lol


Worst part of the night?

I lost my GoPro :(
It fell off the fender is probably out in the field somewhere. Bye bye $200.

Only bad part of the
