SmartyCam Install Gt3

Took some time today to prep Al’s GT3 for the upcoming Audi DE. In addition to changing oil/brake fluid, we also installed a SmartyCam system into the car for video data collection.

Changing the fluids.

And starting the SmartyCam install. The unit uses a GPS device for speed data as well as lap times. My typical mount for the GPS unit is on the front cowl below the wipers.

And the camera installed on the rollbar after running some wires.

For now we have GPS/Speed data. If we want to add more vehicle data, such as RPM’s, we will need to pick up the ECU bridge which is plug and play into the OBDII port on the car. A short test shows everything is set up and working properly!

Probably a good thing the plug-in to record speed and rpm data was not installed. 😉
