TrackMaster for Android based phone...has anyone tried this?
I have an Adroid based phone (EVO) and came across this app.
It seems similar to Harry's Lap Timer.
Has anyone used this product?

Yes, I use it. I couple it with the application "Torque" and an OBDKey to get vehicle data as well.
I have found that Trackmaster gives more accurate times if you only include a start/finish split. Otherwise it makes it difficult to marry up the data from Torque.
If you have an android phone, buy this app.
Here is a video of laptimes from Trackmaster and data from Torque, overlaid onto video of the run using RaceChrono2Avi. Again, the data is a little wonky since it's tough to marry up the way I had things set up, but I hope to improve on this in the future.

So far I haven't used Trackmaster for driver improvement (just got to use it this one session on a friend's car to test the functionality), although I hope to gain some insight into my areas for improvement at my upcoming track event on Labor Day weekend.
There will be more videos after that, as well.

Overall, however, this is still a workable system. It's not as elegant or as easy to integrate as say, TraqMate, but it doesn't cost a grand (minimum), either.
Total investment for me was under $200.
