In heavy traffic. P cars kept getting in the way. This app and car is amazing.

Very nice. I have been using the app on the streets. It's quite useful. I like the 0-60 time calculation.

Any other BMWs there to compare lap times with?

I tried a long random street drive with the app running, and found when I returned that the app had automatically registered a single lap time for a configuration in the road that had me doing a 180 degree loop from a surface street onto the freeway and then driving under the overpass that the surface street used to access the freeway.

So, I guess the app will start giving you lap times when you pass a point on track that it recognizes after activation? Did you set your finish line or did you let the app set it?

I believe it starts your lap at the point you press start.

You don't need it - just DL the app on your iPhone.

I'm guessing, but I'd think if you press start in the pits before you enter the track, the app would put your start point where you first repeat your location on the track. But that's what is so sweet with this, all it takes is a single push of a button to start it, and that makes it possible to start wherever you like when you go on track.

I believe the car does need the BMW Apps function to be able to utilize the app from your phone or pad.

Sweetness, so do I need to buy an iphone to do this? Or any apple device like an ipod or ipad?

I'm looking forward to people posting their 0-60 times.

This app is interesting. If the car doesn't deliver the goods, you have data to take to the dealership. I bet we will see times as low as 3.6 from stock cars.

Correction. The app has its own arbitrary start/finish point. It had it at the top of Andretti straight, which is three turns from the actual start/finish.
