Just returned from the Cadillac Performance Academy and wished I had opted for the PDR. Can the system be added post delivery through the dealership.

Nope, not my lightning lap. I have yet to do Laguna Seca. It's on the bucket list for me next year.That is an impressive Laguna lap time @PrimeTime, even if you did exceed track limits a few timesI've only been at Laguna on two wheels, and while my lap times are a bit faster, not lifting on T1 (right about where the bridge is for folks not familiar with the track) on a bike took a LOT of laps. I still prefer Sears Point over Laguna.

What all entailed with the purchase/install of the Garmin Catalyst aftermarket PRD unit? I have a 5BW without PDR and would like some type of recording device.
Thanks

Nice lap.The Gamin takes less than 5 minutes to install. The tablet itself is held up via a suction cup mount with multiple adjustment points. there is a stick-on camera mount that is installed centered and as high as possible. Otherwise you plug in a 5V power adapter, snap on the camera and plug in a few wires. the only thing that stays in the car is the camera mount which is small and hard to notice. It's a well designed system.

So, I've got an AIM SmartyCam HD in my race car. What cables would I need in order to run it in my Blackwing?AIM Smarty cam with sensor that plugs right into the OBD port. Then you get all the car’s data as you drive.
You would need an ECU Bridge and a external GPS (if you want track/lap timing).So, I've got an AIM SmartyCam HD in my race car. What cables would I need in order to run it in my Blackwing?
If you have a good dealer service department they may reprogram the car for you otherwise you might find an independent shop with the right programming tool that will do the work for a reasonable fee.There another thread out there on the camaro fourms:

I've sourced all the parts and it could get done for <$650. The biggest issue i've run into is the programming. Because this is going to be my only vehicle, I dont have the GM MDI unit, and I see it cost over $1200 for the unit on ebay... anyone have a alternative way to get this done?
