Great video and info! thanks for the kind words and for providing usage instructions 👍 I have slowed down on development of new features, but still ongoing :)
@@thatslotcarguy v2.67 is currently slowly being released to the public, which is just a few bugs fixes, no new features. I am doing some early tests on a "LapTrax Lite" app that would be a motion-detection only, stripped down version of the app, but would be very battery-friendly, running with screen-off. Also had some ideas for a 'tournament' mode with simple round/heat/match-making, but still just ideas at this point.

Thank you so much ...this will be perfect if I build a wood analog track .the idea of rigging up a computer to run a race is to advanced for me being a computer dinosaur. But this is wonderful 🤗
Yes it is pretty good, as you say watch the shadows, don't put it where a car will likely need marshal help as a hand going too close can cause it to count a lap. I don't have a stand for my phone but I will 3D print something.
Colourtraxx mode works the opposite of how you said. It goes by car colour not lane colour. As the matter of fact, it won't work if there's a colour in the background that's similar to your cars. For example if you had Carrera's red/white borders on the track the software won't recognize a red or white car for lap times. I'm a little sad you didn't set it up for two cars running at once. I never could figure out how to get it working without using colourtraxx.
Thanks nice video! I'm looking for an app to professionally manage RALLY races with multiple drivers and multiple tracks, single races, championships, etc... Do you know any products to recommend?
Can anyone walk me through adding additional racers? I’ve got one in and I can’t seem to add more racers. It will only let me put a VO or virtual racer on my other lanes. Thanks
motion detection only works with one car, since it cannot determine the difference between cars. ColorTrax mode works with up to 4 cars of different colors. EDIT: for slot-cars, I could re-write the motion detection to detect in different lanes. I might look into that.

It's pretty amazing how it is, would you have any insight to what updates you maybe able to add

@@protovision2010 sounds very interesting, keep me updated if you can
Also I have many question for an iOS version? Any chance of that happening
@@thatslotcarguy no plans for an IOS version at this time, sorry

Can you please do a video setting up 4 HO lanes? I can only get 1 lane!
Travis- What a great demonstration of this timing system. Was not aware of this, and how easy to use!, Thanks!
I been using it and quite happy with it. I strongly recommend it to anyone in need of a decent lap timer.
Quite enough for most of us, and free, what's not to like. It's actually better than the one my club uses!
I'm not sure I would replace it for a paid stand alone timing system but it's extremely good for a free timing app
Thank`s for sharing this. Great tip. Can`t wait to test it on my track. Have a good one ,and all the best from Norway.
Thanks for watching and I'm happy you found it helpful, let me know how you go with the app
I use it too, works really well. Did have an issue with the screen getting hot during use and it did drain the battery quite fast, otherwise brilliant
Hi Travis wow awesome system, I am impressed with it thank you so much greatly appreciated I love it regards rhys
Great information, thanks for sharing.
Great info
I had NO idea this existed
I downloaded the app immediately
Awesome
Mee toooo

This is brilliant must get it a try it out.👍
Awesome...thank you for sharing this. Had no idea this was out there.
Thanks for watching and I'm happy this maybe of some interest to you
Thanks! Makes it possible to keep track!!
Man thanks so much for your generosity
Thanks buddy!
I'll have to try it, thanks

I drew a phone bridge and 3D printed it today...tests to be done.
Looks good, and for free it’s a winner 👍
The free thing gets me everytime
Very cool bro
Wow, this is a game changer for me 👏 Thanks
Such a great little app
I downloaded this a few months ago as I started my track construction and I think it's the bee's knees
please share a picture of your track...Im just completing mine
Thanks for the demo..😀
Thanks for watching
Looks great I would try it at 3 times the price 😂
Great video as always… where do you get the super cheap auto fences for the track?
Gday mate, magnetic racing
This app is awesome easty to use and works well
good idea .. .use an old android dedicated phone
Travis, muchas gracias
👍💪

Ahhh so I did read it wrong 🤣🤣🤣 being in Australia the instructions are up side down

Thanks you it's awesome 👍 thank you
Thanks for watching legend
Is there a way to do a timed race? I can't find it. Really would like something like that.
Anyone tried this with 4 or more cars yet?
Muito bom! 👍
Pode configurar a língua para português.
Dá para usar em 4 pistas?
Can anyone walk me through adding additional racers? I’ve got one in and I can’t seem to add more racers. It will only let me put a VO or virtual racer on my other lanes. Thanks
motion-detection mode only works with one car, try colortrax mode and cars that are very different in colors.
Does it have mph speed? Wanting to use it on my autoworld drag strip for 1/64 scale mph.
I'm not sure it gives you a speed reading
Great app but with the motion select mode its impossible to add new racers only virtual... please help

Has the app changed, most of the buttons don't show up to adjust the settings on Samsung S20
I haven't checked it for some time
So this doesn't communicate with the Carrera Bluetooth adapter I paid $40 for?
It has nothing to do with Carrera
Looks like it isn't available for iPhone -- which is what I have. 😞
I would suggest buying a cheap second hand android phone and use it only for the app
This app is crap. I'm using it on a RO two car track and it skips laps.
Sad to hear mate, I'm still using it with no issues...and being free it's pretty good from my point of view
