Isn't one built in to the 2SS info center between your gauges?

Hi,

I've never seen one on our cars system.

Danial · 07-17-2022, 09:05 AM

Wow. maybe mine is part of the Commemorative Edition package. Now truth is, I haven't seen or looked for it but my son-in-law said he found it when he drove the car from Pahrump last Sunday. (After my daughter brought it down from Oregon for me.) I'll double check and report back later.

Not in earlier cars. Heck my 2SS doesn't even have backup sensors.

You can try Ulysses Speedometer. 0-60, 0-100 & 1/4 mile. I've never used it to its potential but it's great for speedometer cal.

Interesting. When I get off my rear for the day, I'll check mine out. I do know it has all the backup stuff - camera, sensors etc..

Get a Draggy. It’s around $160. I’m going to get one eventually.

Mid model year in 2010 they started to put backup sensors on, but my car is an early production one.

Danial · 07-17-2022, 07:58 PM

Ok, this is what's in my car. I've only had the car out once, so haven't messed with it at all.

joshnmn · 07-17-2022, 08:10 PM

Definitely draggy

There's an Android app called Torque that has good reviews.

silversleeper · 07-17-2022, 10:19 PM

Be careful with Torq on the android app store. It isn't on the apple app store. One is good, one is a copy scam thing of the real torq app.

I've been using torque since it's beta release, as far as I'm concerned it's the best app for codereading (ODP) and gathering live data on multiple different vehicles.....I know it has performance/race timers but I never tried them cuz I just use the timer built into the speedo/ecu.
give it a shot, the pro version is cheap and if the timer function sucks I'm sure you will use this app for other things it offers, try the free version first....it might have the timers on it
