I'm so glad this was helpful. Thanks for the great comments. Have you looked into Race Studio Analysis 3 (Beta) yet? In this version you can work with data and video together if you have a SmartyCam. Check out this link; th-cam.com/video/Z-9lE2uBZzM/w-d-xo.html
Hi! As far as I’m aware, the answer is no. This said, I would check out the new Race Studio 3 Analysis. While you can’t see the details on the camera footage, you can see data/video together on the same screen. Might solve some of your needs. Wish I could have been more help and thanks for commenting.
Hi! It's automatic. As long as you configure it with your Solo DL (or better still your MXL, MXS etc.) you'll get all of those additional inputs, like throttle, brake etc. You can add more to the screen but all I really ever look at on video is driver inputs and track position etc.
Planning to get the new solo 2 DL for a e86 z4M but someone said that non us spec e46 does not provide the brake pressure (I am assuming that the e86 is the same as the e46). What did you do to get the brake pressure. Thanks.
For brake pressure I used a separate sensor from AiM. Even with the MXL2 or MXS, you still don't get the signal from the ECU on brake pressure so you need to get an extra sensor. Well worth it though, brake pressure is really useful. www.aim-sportline.com/eng/products-car/sensors/index.htm
This video is amazing! I’m learning how to use a data logger to get faster and this is super clear. Thanks a lot!

Great video!
Can you have the smarty Cam show corner low speeds or entry speeds? I thought it used to be able to do that

Great video! I’m looking to get a data logger and love the data/video combo. What kind of data can you get with the smartycam by itself?
Good question. I believe video + GPS overlay (as to where you are on track) and lap time.
James Colborn ok. Thank you.
The solo is only $400 US.
Thanks for the video! Is the data automatically overlaid on the Smartycam video, or do you have to manually sync it with the software?

Thanks for answering my question. Brake pressure is really useful in learning how to become a better driver. Which one did you get?
