It's £7.59 and the description was good so I gave in and got it. Awesome fun, especially as it prints little graphs out for you and showed when I changed gear etc. Very good!

The update is over 200mb, took ages to dl and install, then I had to go create an account, finally I got it all sorted, then I find this is a beta, there's a UPNP error, and even if you can manage to get past that (which I haven't yet) the game keeps crashing apparently.

So you have to tell it the weight of the car to get hp data? Also what mount do you use?

Re: iPhone "must have" apps?

So you have to tell it the weight of the car to get hp data? Also what mount do you use?

You input the weight of the car and the estimated drive train loss (i included the weight of me and a passenger).

As above I had someone in the car to hold the phone steady which was an advantage.

It records you're 0-60, G force (lateral, acceleration and braking) and shows your peaks on both using graphs.

Then it sticks them down as averages on each run and saves them so you can compare. Also tells you you're 0-10 up to 60 times as well as your estimated 1/4 mile time, max speed, max acceleration and peak horsepower.

It's well worth the money and good fun.

Re: iPhone "must have" apps?

So to get accurate results you need to take the car to a weigh bridge? I'm sure a local scrappy would do it for a drink. I might sound like a total noob here, but whats estimated drive train loss? oh and I just read on something I found on google, if you set it at 0 you get estimated hp at the wheels.

 

[Vicky.]

Re: iPhone "must have" apps?

Yes, to get accurate figures you'd have to get the car weighed but just to get a few go's on it, i took the weight from the haynes manual then deducted the 50kg that i've stripped from it and added the combined weight of me and my passenger and that gave figures that were definitely believable.

Its the estimated power loss through the drivetrain (i.e. transmission, driveshafts etc) so the loss in HP from the engine to the wheels. They say it's usually between 15-20% so I stuck mine in at a 20% loss. If that makes any sense lol.

It calculates your both figures iirc without changing anything.

Re: iPhone "must have" apps?

cool, cheers for the help, definately something I'll be buying, when I can find the time to play with it.

 

[Vicky.]

Re: iPhone "must have" apps?

No problem, you'll definitely enjoy it. Put it this way, I got my 3GS on Saturday and have used the App around 10 times already lol!

Re: iPhone "must have" apps?

Its not bad, dont think its in the UK store yet.

Ive tested it a couple of times and its worked ok, but you have to speak properly.

 

[sneeks]

Re: iPhone "must have" apps?

Yeah just downloaded it from the US store and some of the results are funny. Must speak more clearly!!! Not bad for free.

F1 2009 coming next week!

Developer Codemasters has announced that F1 2009 is on its way to iPhone and iPod Touch devices.
According to the studio, the game features all 10 teams, 20 drivers and 17 circuits from the 2009 FIA Formula One World Championship. The game was previously released for the Wii and the PSP.
Players will race against the clock in two modes of play, Time Trial and Endurance. The former involves breaking the record time, while the latter is based on both speed and consistency over 6, 9 or 12 laps.
Steering is said to be accelerometer-based, with virtual buttons used to activate throttle, brake and KERS. An online leaderboard will also be supported to record players' best times.
F1 2009 will be available through the App Store from next week.
