My order is already listed on my dealership's website after I put a down payment in the 2nd week of December, just something to think about.

Vbox as a excellent timing device, but doesn't compare for vehicle data analysis, I'll give you an example, using PDR I was able to better select brake pads because I was able to watch individual wheel speed and abs modulation to determine that when I was threshold braking my rear tires we're starting to lock up engaging abs. I was able to go with a less aggressive rear brake pad and decrease my overall braking distance...
If you just want a video lap timer there are much better options. Video is really a secondary feature of PDR in my opinion, don't forget this is built by cosworth one of the best companies for data analysis.... But people will never understand I suppose...
