Autocross Data Acquisition

[V8VOL]

My current set up doesn't quite provide me with what I need...

I am using Torque Pro on my Android tablet giving me real time data on various parameters of the car (temps, RPMs, Voltage, etc)
I use my Iphone 11 for video with Track Addict
Dual GPS unit
Kiwi 3 OBD bluetooth interface

The problem is, I cant connect Torque Pro and Track Addict to the OBD, therefore not allowing me to get a full video with all the necessary information (throttle input, braking, G's, etc)

Are there any other suggestions? I like having the tablet, but starting to think my limitation is with the iphone only being able to bluetooth onto one device (Torque Pro)

Here is a video that shows the set up:

Solostorm is the default autocross logger.

Software on tablet or phone paired with obd reader, external gps and gopro is the setup. Automatically syncs video and data.

hmmmmm Solostorm doesn't seem to come up in the app store on my iphone? Is there any IOS version?
Which GoPro is recommended?

Seems like even with this set up I wouldn't have the ability to see real time parameters.

Seems like only for android--android tablets are cheap.

You can get real time stuff--I use it. With the obd dongle and GPS, you have all the information.

I use RaceChrono Pro. It will give you everything you need in one. My car doesn't have OBD2 but you could use your Kiwi to get all your ecu information. I'm also using a Garmin Glo for more accuracy than my phone. You can also run multiple cameras.

Solostorm is Andoird only, but will run easily on a cheap tablet. Adding a RaceCapture MK2 gives you a better GPS than the Qstarz thing and also ports some of the ODB channels into SS (steering angle, throttle, brake pressure)

I have been using autocross data since before the DL1 days (Gcube, Geez) and Solostorm is amazingly useful. It is a little harder to get super deep geek level data like with a DL1, but it is crazy easy to compare a pair of runs within seconds and see exactly what you want to change/try/etc.

Thanks for all the input!

I am going to add SoloStorm to my tablet and acquire a GoPro for video. Sounds like that may be my best option.

Solostorm is fantastic for autocross. Love the real-time data, sector splits, and auto-download of the low res video at the conclusion of runs. With events that have enough time between runs (15-20 mins), you can really validate where you under/over drove, where to cut distance, etc.
