If there's a lesson to be learned here it's, Say yes to any opportunity. As you'll listen Andrew Rains has had a busy career in motorsports and he's still a young man.  From working at a performance auto shop to flying on a private jet with a Grand Am team as a pit crew member, Andrew has built a foundation for solid career in our sport.While at Auburn University he was on the Formula SAE team and handled driving duties and was responsible for sponsorships.  This program connected with him his business partner and they realized the need for better and simpler data systems.He's also a tenured professional coach and racer with wheel to wheel experience in the Pirelli World Challenge series (2015 -2017) and he raced a stock car for a year.  Andrew has taken the APEX Pro technology beyond motorsports to offer custom engineering and technology development services for entrepreneurs and companies with needs in the connected device space (Internet of Things) - see Moxieint link below. Andrew also has worked at the Porsche Track Experience at Barber Motorsports Park and still offers coaching to drivers looking to get better. The APRX Pro offers a free app for your iPhone and there's the APEX Pro Unit that provides better GPS data and gives real time, visual feedback.  There's an OBDII unit as well.Andrew talks about getting stuck at the Canadian border while having his truck and trailer searched, selling a bunch of assets to buy the remains of the Grand Am team only to sell the cars a year later and then build a Honda Accord.  We also talk about coaching and how using a coach can save you money in the long run.  How to Connect with Andrew & Apex Pro:APEX Pro WebsiteAPEX Pro InstagramDownload the APEX Pro App (it's free)APEX Pro FacebookAPEX Pro User's GroupMoxieiot WebsiteHow to Connect with Late To Grid:Late To Grid InstagramLate To Grid FacebookLate To Grid TwitterShow Sponsor: Track First InstagramTrack First WebsiteTrack First Facebook

Andrew Rains returned to discuss the new second generation Apex Pro and the new release of the App.  This episode was recorded a few weeks ago, but we go into the latest changes to the Apex Pro hardware and the Apex Pro software/app and some of Andrew’s recent racing with Grid Life in the GLTC series at National Corvette Museum Motorsports track (NCM) a very challenging track with lots of turns and a wide variety of turns and use it as a basis for showing some of the information that can be gained from using the data and comparing it to another driver. On this episode’s Dominating with Dawson, Ben, Vicki, and Bill go into the factors of VIR that make it the legendary track that it is and why Ben always refers to it as a benchmark for so many different types of turns.  If you haven't already noticed, it is Ben’s favorite, lol.  We probably have started to plan another race weekend to our season.  Anyone coming with us or have a suggested upcoming event/weekend? The Pocono video we discussed is at:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1RohRau9Hg at around 2.5 minutes in and no, this is not a normal occurrence. You can subscribe to our podcast on the podcast provider of your choice, including the Apple podcast app, Google music, Amazon, and YouTube etc.  Also, if you could give our podcast a (5-star?) rating or even better, a podcast review, we would greatly appreciate it and it would help us to grow the passion and sport of high performance driving.

Everyone always says that the number 1 mod for any driver is “seat time” - but you do reach a point where seat time alone isn’t enough, coaches can only get you so far, so what is an aspiring driver supposed to do?  That’s where software, machine learning and data driven intelligence in the form of “digital driving coaches” come into play. Apex Pro was born out of the desire to simplify and improve the way data is displayed and communicated to the driver, helping folks improve and achieve better lap times. Joining Break/Fix is Special Guest Host Phil Ingalls from MaxSpeed Track Days along with Andrew Rains business lead for Apex Pro to explain how it all works.

Andrew Rains joins us for this episode to talk through his racing history and then we went deeply into the Apex Pro telemetry system.  We have used our two Apex Pro’s many times this season and everyone has liked the simple interface while on track and the data analysis capability off track is simple and fast, yet powerful.  We have only scratched the surface to this point, but we wanted to make sure everyone we know was aware of the Apex Pro system and we all learned a great deal more about the system with Andrew.  After this episode, we can understand why he is a sought after coach at the track. Meanwhile, on our Dominating with Dawson segment, we thought it was time to discuss the concept of scrubbing speed, what it means and how to avoid it, as well as how it can be used to assist you on track to lower your lap times. As always, if you have any questions that you would like us to cover with Ben, please let us know in a (5 star?) podcast review or via email at GarageHeroesInTraining@gmail.com or in a comment on our social media. We hope you enjoy this episode! PS  Andrew and the Apex Pro team was kind enough to provide our listeners a discount code for a free Phone Mount when you buy an Apex Pro unit  on their website.  Please add both the unit and the phone mount and then enter the discount code. provided in the episode   Best regards, Vicki, Jennifer, Alan, and Bill Hosts of the Garage Heroes In Training Podcast and Garage Heroes In Training racing team drivers   Information about the Apex Pro can be found at:  https://apextrackcoach.com/ Andrew and the team can be contacted at:  apex@apextrackcoach.com or at Andrew@apextrackcoach.com Also, Andrew is competing well at the recent Grid Life GLTC NOLA event even though his #719 BMW is on treaded tires vs everyone else on racing slicks here:  Race 3:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7olV427w28 Race 4:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PufQoz_a7hA   Highlights from this episode include: 1)  We learn about Andrew’s extensive racing experience, as well as his current E36 M3 WRL and Grid Life GLTC BMW car, past, present, and future. 2)  Vicki thinks she is on mute.  Then she knows she is on mute.  Then it sinks in.  The life of a mom.  Lol. 3)  Andrew really has a great racing philosophy and a way of thinking about being at the track. 4)  We discuss several potential issues that people cite that prevents them from starting and a variety of ways to overcome them, including contacting Andrew or us at any point.  Every driver we know would love to have more people to share the track with.  It is much more fun for everyone. 5)  The discussion on the Apex Pro at 19:50 with one of Bill’s longest intros ever that Vicki jumped in and made even longer, lol. 6)  Andrew provided a great overview of the Apex Pro device and its operation at 23:20 7)  We begin to explain the detail of the actual operation and interpretation of the lights when on track and how the patented Apex Pro algorithms work in the background.  The best news for most of us is that it works even if you can't even spell algorithm. 8)  Vicki and Jennifer relate how the Apex Pro has helped them on track at their current level of driving.  Those simple little LED lights can provide so much feedback on track and so quickly, it really is amazing.  Especially when a driver may be early on in their learning and can often be overwhelmed with the number and speed of sensory inputs when driving at speed. 9)  We then go into the setup (that is super easy and quick) and beginning use of the data within the app that is collected automatically. 10)  Andrew even answers some of our “how do we” questions with useful tips and tricks, several that we had thought of to this point. 11)  Questions answered include:  Options for multiple drivers and endurance races, approximately how long will the battery last, how to save battery during the day if not powered within the car, how to add tracks, especially for autocross use, can I use the Apex Pro without a phone, how the auto-start and auto-stop features work and interact with the phone screen being on, what does the apex score mean and how to interpret it, some of the potential values and options to utilize the power of the notes section. 12)  How the Apex Pro light display works, what the light colors mean, and how to interpret the lights and probably most importantly, how you can use them to make driving changes on track during the stint. 13)  Andrew also goes into the other data you can get in your car if your phone is visible.  Then we go into the full data capabilities that are available post session using the Apex Pro app. 14)  Our resident engineer has his usual requests for future features.  He just can't help it.  Please bear with him, we try, every single day.  But it appears that Bill may finally have had a good question. 15)  Andrew then moved into the beginning level of looking at data, almost a 101 review.  Once you have used the unit, or any telemetry unit that offers data, this discussion would form a very good foundation for looking at your data the first time and how to correlate the data to your track feel/impression.  Intro at ~51:20 16)  Simple 101 process outline:  1)  Think about where you did not feel comfortable or where you think you may have left the most opportunity to improve,  2)  Look at those areas on the track map overview screen,   3)  Speed vs distance plot and check if the top of the speed trace is rounded (coast or slow transition) or is it sharp and you moved from full throttle to brake quickly,  4)  Look at your minimum speed in corners and if a fast corner you would like a u-shape and in slow corners, you would like a V-shape (fast is above ~60 mph or 100 kph) 17)  Options for exporting the data to larger visual areas, like an iPad or a computer as well as additional options, like Track Attack, to compare with other drivers who may use other data collection systems. 18)  Bill resumes his friction circle soap box discussion.  Andrew graciously tolerates it.  Is there any foundation to Bill’s theory?  Still tbd. 19)  We even had a chance to go into the Apex Pro Crew View feature and how it can be used.  Bill is getting more and more excited.  And then we started to discuss the ability to add in OBDII data. 20)  Options for integrating into other data systems and video options including Race Render. ~1:13:45 21)  Our team has been working on a comprehensive survey of all the data systems, but we have only completed the systems we have personally tested to this point.  If interested in the results or helping us try some of the missing systems, please let us know. 22)  How best to analyze multiple drivers and/or multiple laps within the Apex Pro system as well as external software systems. 23)  We end our discussion of Apex Pro discussion is at ~1:29 and begin our F&F Storytime questions

Racecar data acquisition systems are powerful but many racers struggle to get the the most from them. Former Pro racer Andrew Rains joins us to discuss how his company Apex Pro are developing a novel product to making life easier (and faster) for drivers to improve performance. Join us to learn about his approach to data and how you can apply the same approach no matter what data system you use. Episode Notes Racers spend a fortune on data acquisition systems in the hope of improving their lap-times. Sadly in practise, these high-tech and extremely capable systems do not get used to their full potential. Either because racers don't have the experience with data interpretation or the cumbersome user experience means that practically they do not have the time. What you want are the data's secrets to be presented to in a way that you can maximise their value - either when you are out on track or frictionlessly as soon as you come off the track. Andrew and his team at Apex Pro have taken up that challenge in this traditionally conservative industry. Join us to learn how they have gone about this and how you could benefit as a result. --- Links mentioned in the show: - Learn more about the Apex Pro system at their website here. - Access the Apex Pro YouTube channel here. - Thinking of buying a system?

Andrew Rains is back on the podcast (was also on #56), and we talk about the squiggly lines that data systems of all levels produce, and how you can use them understand what’s going on inside a driver’s mind – or your mind. The subtle shape of these lines tell us a lot, but it takes just a bit of knowledge before you can really use it. And that’s what this show is all about – giving you that knowledge. Andrew is a driver/racer and coach. He also works for APEX Pro, the very cool device that gives instant feedback to you while driving, letting you know whether you’re driving at, near and nowhere near close to the limit of your car.
