Hi there, apologies straight away if I am posting in the wrong section.
I have recently purchased a dl1 mk3 with dash 4 pro and a video 4 system. I had recently been on the half days training course. There were a few points that were not covered. Firstly I have been told the dash four can tell you whether you are up or down on your best lap time at any point on the track. Do you have to keep all the data for your best lap time on the memory card? Also will it figure out that the data is for the same track? Or do you have to configure something?
I am sure there are loads of other dumb questions that I will have once I get the installation all done. I have been lead to believe with all the obd2 information that these things are not at all easy to setup so am using Tim Mason, one of RT approved installers to do it for me. Has anyone any information or reviews of him? He is currently building a small wiring loom for everything. I will then take the Car up to him for the rest of the install.
What are other users opinions on the complexity and ease of configuring this system?
Cheers
Will

Will,
Great name and great car you have there!
Unless I've missed a new feature announcement, the RT equipment can only show "best lap" and lap time delta (whether you are up or down) based on the current run file. Lap information from previous .RUN sessions has no bearing on these functions.
I've been hoping and waiting for a long time for this functionality to be available, as it would make the feature so much more powerful, but I understand that it is not likely an easy thing to achieve, as RT would have certainly done so by now if possible.
RT - any update on this possibility?
Cheers,
Will

Constant time slip
The DASH when being used in conjunction with the VIDEO4 or DL1 mk3/pro can display a constant updating time of how much you are up or down against theretical fastest lap. This can also be displayed in percentage (how faster you are going compared to your fastest lap)
This feature still needs the lap marker file on the memory card like our other lap timing features. The DASH does not store the information and resets each time it is switched on.
Kind regards,
RT
