My Race Data is looking for racers willing to test the Racing TrakBox. The only real requirement is that you compete in a legal sanctioned form of motorsports. If chosen to participate in the testing program, you may receive the Racing TrakBox free of charge.
For more information go to this topic on the community forum or this blog post
The Racing TrakBox is a data acquisition system built from inexpensive hobbyist level development boards. The Racing TrakBox is rigidly mounted inside a competition vehicle and used to evaluate the performance of the vehicle. The Racing TrakBox requires only power and does not require any other inputs. All the data is recorded on a microSD card from the onboard sensors.
The system runs on a microcontroller. The firmware is open source. The system includes a GPS sensor, an inertial measurement unit and an environmental sensor. There is also a real time clock, a small OLED display and a microSD card module. TrakBox includes a web server that can run a dash display including a speedometer on a cell phone.
The Racing TrakBox can record the sensor readings and write them to a file on the micro SD card at a rate of over 90 times a second. You just plug it in and it automatically begins recording when the vehicle begins moving. The data can be retrieved from the SD card and imported for later analysis
The current firmware is open source and free to download. Click the Github links to go to the myracedata github repository. There are schematics, wiring diagrams and a parts list. If you can solder, you can build one!

My Race Data was created to provide racing teams with online services. The platform has been used privately for years. Over the past year some of the services have been made public in order to preview these abilities and gauge interest in providing these services to other teams. Some of the functionality has matured and been tested to the point of being able to be used by other teams. My Race Data is accepting requests from race teams wishing to help test team functionality.

If you run a race team (big or small) we are looking for testers for the team functionality of the site. The following would be considered for team functionality testing

• race teams actively competing in legal sanctioned motor sport
• driving clubs or meet up clubs with at least ten active members
• sanctioning bodies or racing facility owners

please provide information about participation in recent events, sanction bodies competing in, number of vehicles, number of crew, club membership, frequency of participation in events
