Default Yeah, it's pretty cool. I was playing with it this morning. But it would be even cooler if...

some developer (perhaps the same developer) would create a version exclusive to the iPhone 3G that utilizes not only the 3-axis accelerometer but also the iPhone 3G's built-in GPS to log on-track telemetry turn-by-turn for later analysis on the computer and perhaps even have the option to transmit the data real-time to a web server should the need arise

That would be sweet.

Default the reviews in the app store are quite positive...

only the jerks that keep crashing it gave it low ratings.

Default This is a great app. I was playing with the skidpad in the parking lot after work.

How cool is it to have this on your phone!

Default I can definetly say this has worse reception than any phone i've had in the last 3yrs...

but it still doesn't sway me to not loving the iphone. The call quality is far superior than than any phone I've had besides a Sprint line, back in 2001.

The simple fact that I can call people from my iPod makes it worth it.
