That the Vbox is better for someone who wants quick overlay data between sessions and AIM better for someone who wants to read more data. Definately not to the reading data lines place yet in my progression. One of the really nice and IMHO critical parts of the S2DL is the predictive display. That lets you have immediate feedback on your driving. Different line, brake point, or anything else you do is immediately quantifiable for you. No need to do a whole session to wonder if something is better or not. If you have questions, feel free to call me. My cell is 603-674-3250. I have some last minute shopping to do, but I'm around all day today and tomorrow (the rest of the week too). I'm sure whatever you pick will be great and really help you in your driving. Most al the data systems out right now are really solid and will help you progress. |

Definately not to the reading data lines place yet in my progression. When I get home, I just pop the SD card into my computer and download everything for viewing on the big screen. Give Matt a call and he can explain better than I. Since he gave you his number in the above post, take advantage of it. You’ll also get a glimpse into the level of support he can give you. From what I know of Matt, he loves taking these calls smack in the middle of Christmas dinner, right between the ham and sweet potato pie, so don’t be shy and give him a call. (J/K Matt of course). Seriously, give him a call or shoot him a pm. Well worth your time. |
Casserole, not pie😜
I can also put you in touch with someone who just messaged me with a like new original DL to save some coin. |
Thanks guys, I will give a call. Traveling today but will hit you up after christmas Thanks |
I looked at some of the mounts for a SC, and it seems as if it needs a rollbar if recording from behind the driver. Could a SC also be setup via suction mounts at the windshield or is there a way to retrofit the rollbar-mount with the bar immediately behind the seats in a cayman?

You can hang a SCHD upside down from the roof glass, but that's pretty far back. Most of the folks I sell to use triple suction cup mounts and smaller bullet cameras for less obtrusive cameras. The luggage bar works ok.

Thanks! I guess I can still use the rollbar mount on the luggage bar. The OEM bar on the 981 is flat and wide, but I guess I can just use filler like in your picture.

Thanks Bruce. Unfortunately I don't have racing seat/rollbar/harness set up yet. Trying to hold out another season before that upgrade.
Anyway, Im trying to remember from when we were hanging at The Glen this past season: Are you tracking your DD? Same as my track car, yes? A 981S? If not, maybe you should be thinking about making the investment in the safety equipment first and then the data logger and camera. If you aren't using a Hans and Harness's and Race Seats, and something bad happens (whether your fault or somebody else's), and you don't have the Hans and Harnesses, the data logger and camera might end up being the least of your concerns. IIRC, you are running in Yellow or Blue, yes? If so, you are starting to go faster and corner quicker as you progress. Maybe the safety stuff should come ahead of the Data Logger and SCHD? Just a thought. |

Freakin Rangers. Another overtime/shootout loss. Last 4 home games we were at, same result. OT loss. S/O loss. Same old same old.

Yes - had the pleasure meeting you at WGI. Tracking an unmodded 981S on street tires/stock suspension. I agree on the importance of a hans/harness/seats. For now I have a Hybrid Simpson S Hans (compatible w/ 3 point seat belt)...and will probably do the full upgrade after the coming season - not sure if i'm keeping this car yet. I was able to get my hands on an AiM Solo2DL, and was looking into getting a smartycam to make more use of the AIM device - I figure this setup is pretty transferable from my current car to a potential future one. Might be a bit of a pain to transfer the seats/harness/rollbar setup if i do change cars.
Get the SCHD. Get the SCHD and you're done... |
I have a aim solo and have used the smarty cam but after seeing the VBOX I was sold! I have just purchased my new VBOX and love it. The support is amazing, it's quick to look up data in between secessions and can overlay 6 different laps at the same time. I'm still figuring it out but I would pay double the money to have a VBOX over AIM. The only thing I like better about the AIM is how the predictive lap timer and current lap time read on my AIM SOLO display unit so I'm actually still running it along with the Race Logic HD VBOX 2 camera system.
