Performance meter GPS software?

Can't be that expensive as the G-Tech Performance Meter has high accuracy GPS system to do this very function

And they can be picked up for less than £50

I have never seen a G-Tech with GPS, is it a new thing?

Yes, but from what I've read in the C/D article of last month's issue, the Driftbox is also created by the same company as the VBOX.

Chuck is correct about one thing: The XBOX's refresh rates are much higher than a regular USB GPS "mouse".

I've started writing an ¼-mile GPS-based app last year but then realized the 1Hz limitation of my (then) Rikaline 6010 receiver.

Racelogic makes the vbox amongst other things.

Its about £4k though

The driftbox would do everything you asked. We could probably do a GP if there is enough interest. It's great for autocross and road racing too!

The vbox mini is much better than than the drift box, it can stream live to a carputer via usb at 5hz. The drift box can not stream live. vbox mini costs about $1800
