Hey guys!

Just here to inform you about Dynolicious! I know some people here have iPod Touches and iPhones and here's the BEST app you can ever get your hands on!

It's a self benchmarking tool for your car! It will measure your 0-100km/hr, 1/4 mile and MORE. It even gives you a graph with your acceleration, G forces along with kWs!

Seriously guys, if you have an iPhone or iPod touch and don't have this then you don't know what you're missing! Only catch is that it's like 15 bucks and you have to *AHEM* go to a "drag strip". Doesn't have to be 1/4 mile, can be as long as you want as it'll auto stop the benchmarking if you brake more than 10km/hr from your current speed and give you those results. You can also use it at a skidpan as it has a skidpan feature too.

Sounds like i'm selling the product but damn guys it's super awesome!

Check out these Youtube videos and their website. Seriously, it's my favourite app.

The iPod Touch and iPhone have inbuilt accelerometers in them which are suprisingly very high end sensors that can detect forces such as Gs, acceleration, deceleration. By using time along with these sensors, it can figure out distance and through complex equations, the program can figure out the kWs of your care purely off acceleration and weight of your car.

Watch the review. It is very surprisingly accurate. The tested it against the time slip from a 1/4 track and the 1/4 time and speed were off by about 0.05.
