Then you do an alignment in the catalyst software. I think the instructions tell you to place it as high up and center of the windshield as you can. The only way you should mount the catalyst remotely is if you get the stand alone camera attached to the catalyst. There was once example where a user didn't know why the catalyst was showing him taking certain lines through the track when those were silly lines he would never take, and did not take during those sessions. That basically means all these positions talked about here are not good for accuracy. Over at rennlist, the big salesman over at rennlist, Peter Krause, repeated many, many times about having the camera mounted on the windshield in a certain way so the camera saw the whole track as it's used to identify your position on the track. There were several pages here discussing mounting position of the catalyst itself, with people mounting it in all sorts of places. So I just read through this thread and something stood out to me comparing it to the rennlist thread. I've never gone off as much as I have with the Garmin cuz I jus constantly trying new things. It's all about experimenting the entire time. You must be willing to try new lines, new braking points, blow by corners cuz you screwed up. So I would say the best way to utilize the Catalyst is to experiment with your line, brake zones, etc and then look at your sessions for the "opportunities" the unit presents to you. What it can do is see how your time through a corner is affected by when you brake and what line you take etc. It won't find a better line or a deeper braking zone for you. The Garmin is good for putting an optimal lap together from what you have already demonstrated what you can do. Anyone have any new input or experience worth sharing? There hasn't been a lot of posting here recently. Safely help bring me up to the next plateau. Hoping this can push my buttons in just the right way. Id rather not end up in the later in real life. I've been sim racing for a long time and know what I am capable of good and bad. Call it my mental insurance, it does handicap my times. However, being my only car there is a 10-15% pace that I don't even attempt. At my current pace I feel very comfortable and consistent. Really curios to try it out and see where I can cut some time. Have a track day mid April at Thunderhill West which I have run a few times before and have a decent pace.
Video overlay is great for learning the course after your first run and for clicks and engagement but not much else.Alright, I just pulled the trigger on one with the $100 rebate coming near the end. If your that far off line that you need a data overlay of video, data isn't going to fix your problem only more seat time. Regardless, anyone looking at video as a primary source of data analysis is missing the point of data and not using a good data system or failing using it to its potential. The cloud option to publicly share logs is alone is worth the cost. I'm not saying everyone needs to drop two grand on data, while it isn't the worst idea in the world, even using a 10hz SoloStorm setup is miles beyond anything TrackAddact can provide. The difference between 10hz GPS and 25 or 50hz is shocking in itself but having additional real time CAN data traces (OBD2 is awful) and discreet sensors significantly changes how you view and analyze your runs. Pairing it with a system like RaceCapture and tapping the CAN bus unlocks the true power of data.
This is available immediately after your run. While you do need to import the high resolution video from the GoPro to generate a high resolution video suitable for YouTube, the native app has video overlay along with the ability of displaying the video along side the discreet traces.
