Car 0-60 times using GPS

[Guest YXD]

Hi

A friend of mine has some software on his phone that measures the 0-60 time of his car, however the software is for symbian only

Does anyone know of anything like this for Windows Mobile as I'd like it on my HTC Kaiser

Haha, yes! Paul's baby CamerAware does it with GPS.

It's available, well, all over this forum actually, or go to www.cameraware.net. The option's in the "expert mode". I don't know how accurate it is though...but like your friend may have found out, you need to be a bit above 60 for it to register in my experience (try holding 65 for a couple of seconds).

GPS software on phones is too slow to react to get accurate measurements. Use the GPS to hold a steady speed of 60 then correlate this with your speedo (it will be above 60 on the speedo and maybe up to 66). Then stop and burn rubber to get to the correlated speed which will give a fairly accurate 0-60mph.

There is something called GPS Performance by JFM Studios. I tried a demo, seems to be ok.

Or maybe this app ? Haven't tried it on the Omnia tho B)

I tried the extreme apps gforce and it looks promising, however at the moment it doesnt work on the omnia (several issues including screen size)

Version 3 according to http://www.extreme-apps.com/dwnld.php is expected at the end of the month and will work on the omnia
