Good laptimer

Everyone uses data differently, I'd be curious what others think.

I personally have never used lean angle to inform my riding in anyway. Obviously more lean/lower COG facilitates greater corner speed, but I am not optimizing lean angle through any corner. You do whatever the corner asks knowing where the corner fits within that segment/track and what comes after it.

Gearing and speed are the variables I pay most attention to in addition to overall segment times and lap times. Occasionally I look at the race line between optimal lap and slowest lap superimposed on google earth, and that can be useful to know the give and take - where to give up speed and where to take it back.
 
I have yet to log and I'm new to the track game, but to share another's experience...I think it was on this forum someone mentioned when looking at braking and acceleration data it became obvious to them how early they were on the brakes and late on the throttle.

That’s the real value of it to my understanding - objective data to verify or refute your subjective impression. “I’m on the gas really early… I’m braking really hard… the throttle was completely closed when I got that mis-shift…”

Data log says!: “eh, think again bro.”
 
Some people like to see TC and wheelie intervention so they can understand how well their suspension setup (and riding style) is working. My understanding is that the Solo 2 does not show this info for V2, but does for some other bikes.
 
Autoclub Speedway is a very big facility, NASCAR races there, but they run various configurations of the track for car versus motorcycle lapping days etc….I’d be curious if the configurations we run are on there.

Is there a way to see if the tracks you'd be going to are even in the Aim Solo 2 database?

Aim is the Nokia of the motorsports world. EXCELLENT hardware, but god the software is from medieval dark ages. You have to use race studio to flash the desired config file on your unit, and load/unload tracks. Aim has the database of 2000 tracks yes, I have seen them in race studio. My unit was purchased from the UK and I had to delete all those European tracks and then load up all the US tracks I wanted, and also flash the V4 specific config file onto it. Once you get it setup, it's pretty easy to use. Just powers on with the bike, recognizes the track and starts recording laptimes. Zero input required.

If either you or Craig are having issues with racestudio, ping me and I will see if I can get on the computer to co-browse and walk you through it.
 
If you go Aim Solo 2 be aware you may have to sort out the connector for 2021+ bikes. It comes with the flat 4-pin not the square 6-pin.
 
For sure.

I'd probably elect to figure out the pin out, since on the 6-pin only 4 are used, and custom make a connector to make it smaller. Adapters tends to add a lot more material.

Buy the unterminated CAN version, buy the plugs and save more space

Also something to keep in mind, if you go in on data know you will need to ru na PC as AIM and basically everyone won't run native on a Mac. And while AIM has been saying they will have something for IOS it seems they actually never will
