RaceBox Mini and Mini S data analysis

LapSnap connects to the RaceBox Mini and RaceBox Mini S over Bluetooth, sets up recording and downloads your sessions to your phone. You see every lap on a track map with speed, lean angle and your line, and compare laps to find where the time went.

Connect your RaceBox

  1. Charge the RaceBox, switch it on and keep it near your phone.
  2. Turn on Bluetooth on your phone.
  3. Open LapSnap, tap the plus button and choose RaceBox Mini.
  4. Allow the Bluetooth and Location permissions when LapSnap asks. Your phone needs both to find the device.
  5. Pick your RaceBox from the list. If its memory is locked, enter the device's password.

Record and download

Once connected, LapSnap shows whether the RaceBox has a GPS fix and how much memory is free. From the RaceBox screen you can start recording and change these recording settings:

  • Recording data rate. A reduced rate lets the device record for longer.
  • Pause if stationary. Recording pauses after 30 seconds below 5 kph (3 mph) and resumes when you move again. Leave it off for standing-start drag runs.
  • Pause if GPS fix is lost. Recording pauses after 30 seconds without a GPS fix.
  • Auto shutdown. The device stops recording after 30 minutes with no new data. Reconnect with the app to start again.

After your session, connect again, tap Download recorded data and select the session records you want. Choose the track, track condition and vehicle, and LapSnap processes the session once your phone has an internet connection. You can erase the device's memory from the same screen when you no longer need the recordings on it.

Import RaceBox CSV files

LapSnap also creates sessions from RaceBox CSV exports. Tap the plus button, choose to import a file and open the CSV. This is useful for sessions recorded before you installed LapSnap.

What you can do with your RaceBox data

  • Analyze each lap. Speed, acceleration, braking, lean angle and your line on the map.
  • Optimal lap. Your best four sectors added up into the lap time you could reach.
  • Compare laps. Any lap against your best lap, your optimal lap or another rider's lap, lined up by position on track.
  • Professional reference data. At select racetracks, compare against a professional's laps on the same track.

LapSnap is used on motorcycles, karts and cars, so the same RaceBox works whatever you drive or ride.
