We've been using iRegatta (http://www.letscreate.dk/letscreate/?q=node/279) for some time but there's a new entrant in the field: RaceQs (http://raceqs.com/home/). We will be running both in the Icicle series.
If others sign up we can compare performance.
Sample output from RaceQs (http://raceqs.com/members/mitulica/activity/).
What boat?

Cool. If I get time I will get the app.
I got the app and signed up but I have not had time to set it up. What do i need to do?
The app has 2 uses: live start line countdown and performance, or, capturing boat data during a race. It also captures all the boat motion's using the sensors inside your phone. I used it in latter mode (since we have iRegatta for starts and performance), and created this replay of our boat in Icicle Race I (http://raceqs.com/tv.htm#user_id=8365&video_offset=&track=9a3d58ce-0530-40c7-ac12-fdc6ff381d97&start=2014-01-04%2012:01:32.093%20-06:00&finish=2014-01-04%2013:29:46.317%20-06:00&boat=NoName). I haven't yet figured out how to show other boats in the same regatta.

I figured out how to use it but did not turn it on. Will do that next week. I have iNaX on Stinger and have been making tracks from that. Gets kind of boring after a while.
Very nice display. Could not figure out how to zoom out but other then that display was neat.
Here's Cyrano's replay from race 3. (http://raceqs.com/tv.htm#user_id=8365&boat=Cyrano&track=1dddb0c1-66d3-4a20-bddd-fe9aa87d023f&video_offset=&start=2014-01-18%2012:16:27%20-06:00&finish=2014-01-18%2013:33:55%20-06:00&boat=Cyrano&iframe=true)

Common GBCA racers, get RaceQs for your phone (http://raceqs.com/home/3d-race-replay/), run it during the race with the phone flat on a chart table, and we'll have a fleet view.
can un-common gbca racers participate also? :D
Certainly leaves me out.
Oh sorry I forgot we are all special! ;D
Some of us are just excellent ballast. I resemble that remark.
Heck of a 4th/5th place finish. Continuing thread here. (http://discussion.gbca.org/index.php?topic=1445.msg8805#msg8805)
