New Garmin Catalyst is money
 
I have rarely, if ever, improved my times on track from session 1 to session 2. usually it is a track temperature issue, or my SC3R's already gave me their hero lap during the first session. So, after using the Catalyst, and studying the opportunities it suggested, I was pleasantly surprised to see I was .5 seconds faster on a hot day and on tires not on their hero lap (small tight track...streets of willow). This is a really good mod for getting faster. Highly recommend it. I can easily see getting 1-1.5 sec faster on the bigger tracks using the opportunities it highlights.

I bought one but have not had a chance to use it yet. I really do wish they had OBDII implementation though.

I have one, and I like it. I haven't really benefited from the coaching, but seeing live if my line tweaks make a difference is totally dope.

Ross Bentley has a webinar on YouTube with the engineers from Garmin. I highly recommend watching it. Deep dives into what the catalyst is capable of.

I talked with someone that had one at the last SCCA TT I went to. They showed me an example of using it and talked through how it helped them... Fantastic tool! Pretty simple and straight-forward, which is KEY.

I have one and love it. Only have been able to use a couple times though. Nice to see another ZLE in the area. We should def track together soon.

Mike,
I am going to Buttonwillow on the 30th of this month. First time out with the new ZLE! It is with speedventures.

BRP is def my favorite, but I hate tracking during summer. Way too hot for me. Also I avoid SV as much as possible lol.
