interesting, though I wonder how I would hear the coaching - ear buds =
under my helmet, over the noise of an unmuffled exhaust?
Be cool to try it out as I=E2=80=99m sure I could use coaching!=20

Hi folks. A friend who races an MG, just asked me what I know about the =
Garmin Catalyst track recorder. I use a cell phone app (Track Addict) to =
collect data and find it helpful but have no real world experience with =
anything else.

The Garmin seems expensive, more like something you'd find in a =
dentist's track day Porsche but his wife wants to know if he'd like it =
for his birthday.

Anyone use this or a similar all-in-one device that I could recommend to =
him ?=20

thanks
