AXAnalyst+Video - Your Autocross Coach
I had my first autocross event this weekend with your software. It all works GREAT! For around $400. I have a top notch data logger. What great software product. If anyone is serous about autocrossing they should get your software. The thing I like most about your software is how easy it is to use and it runs on a Mac.

AXAnalyst+Video combines the best in data acquisition and analysis with your in-car (or outside-of-car) video, producing videos with overlaid data.
Data analysis is the key for finding out how you can go faster. Video of the driver is the key for breaking bad habits and developing good ones. AXAnalyst+Video combines the ability of AXAnalyst to help you go faster after only one run with the ability to create a combined video to correlate the data with the actions! It will analyze the data from a run and present the results in a form that is easy to understand, and instantly identifies the segments of the run that need improvement. It's like having a coach sitting right there next to you in the car, who can not only tell you where, but also how to improve. Add to that the ability to combine the data and video to get a complete picture of the run.
AXAnalyst+Video does this by providing a "two-minute analysis" that can be done even between runs. Simply start the download of your run's data to AXAnalyst+Video (it reads the data from the GTechPro directly), and take care of your normal post-run tasks. Come back to find the data downloaded and the analysis on your computer screen! From there, slice-and-dice the data as you want, or open a previous run in the same window to do a side-by-side comparison complete with analysis of which run is slower, and by how much at every single point on the run!
Later, you can combine the video and data to discover interactions between car input and reactions. Plus, you can also later upload the video to popular video sharing sites such as Google and YouTube.
AXAnalyst+Video combines the functionality of the critically-acclaimed AXAnalyst with the ability to create and combine multiple video sequences.
Just download the version for your computer, some sample run files, and try it for yourself!
And now, we've made a video available from one of Glenn's runs from the 2008 Packwood National Tour. See if you can find the near spins near the end of the run!
