I don't trust it...it doesn't work. And yes I agree it's much better to work it out yourself (which I do), I just wanted to try it.

Stu, I think the thumbs down were probably due to the fact you're only 4 races into your GPRO career and already seem to be looking for an easy route to success. If that's what you want to do you're probably far better off joining the mentoriing scheme, or better yet a team.

Either by intuition or by an analysis of how/why that something works?

It'd be a barmy world if nobody trusted anything they didn't make themselves...I wouldn't have any pants, for example.

Just tried that message telling me "carnt communicate with gprotrackupdate.

then it shows the same message as above.
It appears to me i can not communicate with the gproweb/database.

very annoying and all i have is data up to end of season 33.

Outdated version? Maybe your system/antivirus disallowed the application to connect with the internet?

It'd be best to ask in the official GO thread:

If your asking about the GO program.... read the beginning of the thread for the original designer of the program.

I believe he made it, FREE of charge, for ALL the Gpro community.

It has `bugs` then he will fix them in due time, folks. You should thank him for the work he has done and continues to do.

No Roy, he is asking for an online app called GPRO Database (you can google it).

It's an online application developed by some unknown person that gives some tools that aid practice, OA calc, weather conversion and I think some fuel stuff, and some tyre calculations.

You input your data that is stored for you to use, although there is no indication if it used by someone else.

I have some of its performance and I know it is not perfect, but it can aid a rookie.

Unfortunately

1) It doesn't teach you, so people using it will never learn the game.

2) Your data is not secured.

(GO on the other hand has been checked not to send data toanybody, it just communicates to GPRO for data gathering and receives info from the GO site to veify version)

Undoubtedly that data IS used by someone else. There's no other reason for building a massive, centralized database of people's GPRO data other than to use it for analysis. Even if that wasn't the original intent behind it, it's very reasonable to assume that's what it's being used for these days.

It's actually almost clever. You give people a "free" tool that collects their data and puts it into your database. In return, you give them a practice and qualifying setup calculator that isn't 100% accurate, but is good enough to attract the use of a fair number of people who don't know any better.

Comments on this page rather imply he got frustrated with the gpro staff and let it go.

All data will not automagically grabbed from gpro site. I'm tired to fight with GPRO team, tell "thank you" to them. All grabbed data will available here before the end of time.


The page has not one time changed since i first noticed it.

Obviously it's a nice catch for every Rookie w/o a team.

It's the same guy who calls me on the phone every week, to warn me that my computer is at risk and I need to let him fix it. Right...

Unfortunately, I know someone who is so thick, they did this. At least 20 people have told her to change her passwords and try to counter what may have transpired.
