Searching the iTunes database for Automotive Apps just isn’t an option. They have categories like “navigation” and “travel” but Apple doesn’t view “High Performance” as a relevant search criteria. But, we do. Here are 10 High Performance iPhone / iPod / iPad apps that every motorhead should know exists. (Listed from left – right / top row first) The Descriptions are taken strait from the source. Enjoy!
The Oasis Bluetooth headset is Motorola’s latest carnation of wireless tech. Multiple studies and years of research on ear and face ergonomics and comfort have led to a headset design that actually makes far more sense than a large piece of plastic surging around your cheekbone.
“When developing Oasis we considered all aspects of the ear – literally inside and out – to guide our designers on how to create the most comfortable headset design available today.”
The Oasis is designed to feel as though it’s not there. The boom is fully adustable and there are three different ear gel cushions to choose from. It’s rated for up to 12mph of wind resistance and will onnect and receive calls from two Bluetooth-enabled devices at the same time.
Driving is a serious business and the use of cell phones while doing so has become quite a problem. Anyone that’s been caught driving behind or next to someone on their phone knows the danger a phone presses against someones face can present. Bluetooth headsets are the best answer to date so we applaud any design that promotes actually using the ones we buy.
A little over a month ago we posted an article on the Horizon H-Cell 2.0 Hydrogen R/C Fuel Cell. Unfortunately, information concerning pricing and availability were not available – until now! “It’s just a toy” you say… Well, Horizon might very well be the company that’s going to change the way our cars and motorcycles are fueled in the near future. And, as long as it makes serious horsepower and uncontrollable torque, we’re all for Hydrogen Fuel.

Drift Innovation hits the 1080p High Def video scene with their new HD170. The HD170 is the first sports camera ever to offer an integrated LCD screen, remote control, Digital 4X zoom, and Night Mode for optimal low‐light recording. It shoots 1080p, 720 or WVGA HD video setting and takes 5 megapixel photos from a 170‐ degree wide‐angle lens that can rotate 300‐degrees so you can mount the camera at whatever angle works best for your application. Compared to the likes of the Hero HD and ContourHD, it’s larger and slightly heavier making it slightly less appealing in the mount-to-helmet category. But, the remote control is the feature we think makes it a great choice for mounting to your car or motorcycle when you’re looking for that shoot on the fly functionality.
Every garage or shop has a few cans lying around somewhere and no repair job runs smoothly without it. Formerly known as the Rocket Chemical Co., WD-40 is now offering their product in a 1950′s throwback can that will look great sitting on the shelf or workbench next to those old issues of Hot Rod Magazine. Fix squeaks, loosen bolts, eradicate rust (the list of uses is endless) with the present-day blue and yellow can. The retro 1950′s black and yellow can is a keeper.
