Anybody using dynolicious?

The iphone and ipod app dynolicious is supposedly more accurate than a Gtech. Considering that for the cost of a dyno session, you can buy an ipod touch and the app ($229+$13), this is very tempting. No affiliation, but does anybody here have hands on experience with it and a 911?

Post your findings on pocket dyno the other one looks pretty neat to use. And in my opinion this is more technical than half the posts made in the tech forum too bad it went to off topic.

I'm looking for an iPhone app that uses GPS for lap times as well as lateral g's. Is there a good one available yet?

Dynolicious measures lateral Gs, and plots all the data versus time. The only unkown would be for it to know when your lap is over, if you want the exact time.

I think I found it. A program for the iPhone called Track Time. It does HP, accel, lateral G's and adds lap times by GPS!

OKay, so far we know of three apps. I gathered some tests below:

I followed the link on the pocket dyno compared to actual at the drag strip.. For $4.99 it was scary accurate!!! Since I don't have a 3G that's the one for me!
