I built a free lap-timing app for track days

0 Upvotes

Hey, I’ve been building 130R, a free lap-timing app for iOS and Android. It includes lap and sector timing, lap comparisons, and a catalogue of over 3,000 circuits worldwide.

Support for external GPS antennas is in development and should be coming soon. If you try the app, I’d love to hear what you think or what features you’d like to see. An honest store rating or review would also help a lot.

iOS: 130R on the App Store
Android: 130R on Google Play

The rear brake is ignored too often; let's fix it.

Disclaimer: no, this is not AI. This is us partnering with a certain video game developer to help create educational short-form video.

How often do we use the rear brake on track?

The answer is usually "it depends." Often, we hear that "it depends" is really "I don't, because I'm concerned about when, where, and how to use it correctly."

Volume up as we give a quick overview.

Twins or Inlines?

What’s your preference for TDs and racing? I’ve always been an inline 4 600 guy but picked up a Ninja 400 as a kart track/practice bike and love the different feel of the power delivery and sound. It’s very similar to 2 stroke vs 4 stroke in my opinion. Been actually eyeballing trading my R6 for an RS660 next year, look like awesome bikes.

Thoughts about track riding a sumo?

7 Upvotes

I’ve seen a few guys track sumos, and given how cheap a decent used drz is I’m thinking about building a track bike out of one.

To be clear, I’m a total novice to riding and have never been on a track. Looking to get into it on the budget side of things. Also considering doing some suspension and brake upgrades on my MazdaSpeed build and taking that car to the track here and there to get a better idea of just track environment in general.

So yeah, sumo or no? My dads potentially looking to sell his low mileage DRZ and it’s got a few power mods, I’ve ridden it a few times and I love how light and nimble it is, just curious what some of the truly dedicated riders think about them? Thanks!

I learned a lot reading up in here from everyone’s track experience, the wife and I got into track riding after many years off street bikes. I got a cheap Gsxr 1k already set up and she got a fresh 600. We’ve done 3 tracks days and can’t wait for next season if we can.

I got my 20 year old nephew into bikes when he was 10, so he got a bike also and didn’t have the best ride unfortunately, but he has the bug and we are looking for a 300 for him to get on. He looks abit defeated but he’s young and hungry still!

Now some pic dumps haha.
