The app is and will be add free!
Got it here; https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... celeration
Found a nice quiet, level bit of dual carriageway on my way to work, and fired it up, gave it 30 secs to get all the sats, and the accuracy was +-1m - Botched my first standing start, but the second gave me this result;
That was letting the car change on it's own at full kickdown, did notice that it changed 1st to 2nd at about 5500rpm, so will try and improve on that figure, but all in all, not bad going for a 13 year old, 62000 mile car with a full tank of fuel!
Should we organise a challenge???

Bit of fun. Only as good as the hardware in your phone. Which would be not so clever, in the case of my old S4.
