There is extensive instructions in the Owner's Manual and in the PCM Manual on operating the Sport Chrono functions in the 991. I saw the lap time and other displays that can be exported, and so I was wondering is anyone using these functions?

 

I think most people have/use Sport Chrono for the "sport" feature and not the "Chrono" features. I have played with it, but never use it....however, I don't do laps.

 

Exporting is interesting but with little practical value.. Did it once... And that was it..

 

I read the instructions several times and decided it was way to complicated. If you are interested in measuring lap times, I use Harry's Laptimer application with my iPhone & GoPro. It will cost you $29 for the Grand Prix version. It will control your GoPro, so that gives you great video's while recording all other track data.

When I saw a video of Walter Rohl driving a Turbo S on a track with a magazine reporter I watched very closely because Mr. Rohl was a test pilot for developing the car. There was a moment in the video when he told the reporter he was going to do a hot lap and at that moment he reached for his chronograph wrist watch to start timing the lap!

Fast forward a year (or two) later and now I own a similar car. I wanted to use whatever Porsche built into the car so I started reading about the Sport Chrono. At the very least I know how to start and stop the function while driving. It is about as distracting as trying to driving while using a cell phone, though.

 

I'm my old 2011 4S it was useless.
In my new 2013 4S, it's a Great Clock!! Lol...
