Same as Traqmate. You don't connect the USB cable to the dash, or take the dash out of the car. You remove the SD card and stick it in your computer or card reader, pulling the data off that card. It's cool.
How big a SD card will fit?
What we really need is a new version of Traqstudio. V 1.00 stutters and is counter intuitive.

Can you still connect laptop via USB? It replaces the old DU, so you have to connect it to a laptop with Traqstudio to change settings. Plus that is another SD card to sdeal with.

You do NOT need to configure it with a laptop and you can review session times without the computer, too. If you want to access the data, take out the card and stick it in the laptop. You will have one card for the dash, one for the GP Hero2.
It comes with a 2 GB card, enough for most people's whole SEASON worth of data.
Ummm, TraqStudio is up to v3.00... It works pretty darned well, actually.

I'm bringing this thread back to life. I just purchased the Traqdash from Peter (Thanks!). I cant wait to use it. I figured some people would like ideas on mounting, because I did not find any really good examples:
1. I ordered this product from Amazon.com
2. I bought some more heavy duty VHB tape
I wanted to be able to remove the Traqdash, yet wanted it somewhat permanent too.
I can remove the unit when needed (Pits after hours, Rain etc). I also offset it to the right so I could use my right hand AROUND the steering wheel to touch the screen when needed. (Not touching it THROUGH the steering wheel which I think is less than ideal and unsafe).
Needless to say, I'm very happy with my mounting of the Traqdash. It is very secure and removable. Best of all, the view is unobstructed through my steering wheel.
I think everyone should add more examples to this thread to give others more ideas.
Looking forward to using it on the track.
