FYI - It looks like there's a new iPhone app called "Pro Race" on the App Store, as of 11/12/2016. It's got some free features and a demo period for the "Performance Pack", which appears to be $4.99 to permanently upgrade.

I just downloaded it (have not yet tried it), but thought I'd pass it along in case anyone else wanted to try it. App link and additional information below:

• Pro Race is a LIVE monitoring system that allows you to place your device in you vehicle and it will track what your BHP, 0-60, 0-100, 1/4 Mile Time and Speed and also your Top Speed reached. This is all captured while you race a 1/4 mile straight or around a track

• We find that the Vehicles Performance feature really helps racers become faster and better on the track. It allows them to try new ways to get that little bit faster whilst the app tracks things like the vehicles BHP being used and reaction times of the line. This means racers can quickly see when something is an improvement to the vehicle or their methods of racing. Winning's Winning!!!

Wow!  Sounds like fun.  Have you tried it yet?

Since it doesn't interface with the vehicle, I'm guessing that it's all GPS based?

Yeah, it's GPS based. I enabled the "Performance Pack" demo last night, which works for 3 days.

I'm not all that impressed with the "Power Run" I made this morning  (based on a sample size of one). The onscreen message before the run states says data will stop recording when it senses deceleration.

I made one pull from a stop up to 110MPH (speedo indicated). The run summary in the app said my max speed was 99.0mph (speedo error??) As I was writing this post, I pulled up the data again, and the "max speed" on the summary mysteriously changed to 100.0 mph, so it somehow changed between 7:15AM and 3:25PM. I'm 110% sure it read 99MPH this morning.

The 1/4 mile summary says 14.29s @ 84MPH. I don't have any track data for comparison, but methinks this is a little off as well. :)

I also noticed there is a "0-100 Time" with units of "MPH" - the value is 0.00, even though the max speed attained now shows 100.0 MPH.

I'll try again a couple times over the next few days to see how repeatable the results are, but for now, I'd save your $$.
