A rally computer for regularity: hold your average, follow the roadbook part by part, and know to the second whether you are early or late. Built for TSD, regularity and historic road rallies, on the phone that is already in the car. Trusted by regularity crews since 2015. This is the iPhone app customers bought before version 4.0, and it keeps receiving every new release. New here? Read ACCESS at the end. IN YOUR LANGUAGE Now fully localized in English, German, Spanish, French, Italian and Dutch, with real rally terminology and your choice of announcement voice. It also speaks your event's vocabulary: section and stage, leg and section, or stage and leg. FOUR SCREENS, ONE ENGINE • Classic: two big counters, tap a readout to promote distance, time or speed • Advanced: the dense four-up grid most crews run when there is no roadbook • Special Stage: a big clock, live splits, and the gap to your best run of the day • Roadbook: follow a roadbook part with its target speed, countdown and time owed TIME, SPEED, DISTANCE • Auto-start at your minute, or after 30 or 60 seconds, with an audible countdown • Set the organizer's official time once, and the app runs on their clock, not yours • CAST and target-average regularity, with an optional MAX ceiling • Max speed: set your own never-exceed limit, in every mode. • Open Road parts with a base speed and a posted cap • Transits and pauses, because a real event is not all competitive • The pace tip names the speed to drive, not just "faster" • Unlink the average from the partial counters when the rules need it • Time against ideal, spoken at the interval you choose • Readouts count down to the next control, or up from the last one DISTANCE YOU CAN TRUST • Calibrate against the organizer's own measured leg, with sanity checks • Adjust distances mid-run, total and partial together or apart • Works with the internal GPS or external receivers (tested with Garmin GLO 2 and Dual XGPS150A) HANDS ON THE WHEEL • Voice announcements for current speed, average, distance and the pace tip • Flic and Flic 2 wireless buttons: start, mark the crossing, quick restart • Drive the app from a Bluetooth media button on the wheel. • Energy saving, including pure black on OLED, for a long day in the car AFTER THE RUN • Tracks saved automatically and named by where you started and finished, including unnamed ones already in your library • iCloud sync for your tracks and roadbooks, across your own devices • Export the track as GPX or KML, or a roadbook run as a CSV • Share a clean map image of your run, ready to post HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT IS We are your instrument, not the beam. The organizer's timing owns the result. A GPS fix is good to a few meters, so our numbers are honest to about a second, not to hundredths. And some organizers do not allow this class of device at all: check your regulations, not the app. ACCESS 3pRally and 3pRally Pro have the same features. What differs is where you can buy. If you bought 3pRally before version 4.0: you keep everything you paid for, with no subscription and no time limit, and you keep receiving new features. Roadbook mode is the one thing not included. Download 3pRally Pro and a small one-off pass adds it, at a price reserved for you. If you are new: everything works, for 45 minutes of running time per day. That is enough to evaluate the app and not enough for a rally. Nothing is sold inside this app, so download 3pRally Pro when you want to remove the limit. Full manual at 3prally.com/manual, with an offline PDF. Need a feature, or hit a problem? We read every message: support@3pmaster.com. Note: 3pRally needs an iPhone with GPS, or an external receiver. Continued GPS use in the background can decrease battery life. Want iPad and unlimited running time? See 3pRally Pro. For off-road, overlanding and rally-raid tripmaster duty, see 3pMaster.
