In rally, every tenth of a second matters and every detail counts. That’s why at Vittorio Caneva Rally School, where precision defines performance, we rely on tools that match the pace and pressure of modern rallying. ARM’s GPS tripmasters deliver just that: accurate, easy-to-use, no-nonsense devices that cut out the complexity of traditional setups.
For decades, tripmeters required wheel sensors, speed pulse cables, and external antennas. Every new car setup meant crawling under the chassis, wiring into power and speed sensors, mounting brackets, and praying the external antenna didn’t lose signal or get ripped off during a stage.
Not only is that a logistical headache for training environments where drivers switch cars frequently but it’s also an unnecessary point of failure during rallies. A broken sensor or a poorly routed cable can mean unreliable data or, worse, no data at all.
ARM’s GPS tripmasters eliminate all that. They don’t need a single sensor. No wheel pickups. No gearbox pulse. No antenna on the roof. Just a USB-C power source and a clear view of the sky. Thanks to internal, high-sensitivity GPS receivers, these units lock onto satellites quickly and deliver precise speed and distance data even in challenging rally conditions.
Need to switch cars between recces and race? Just unplug the unit, move the suction cup mount to the next windscreen, plug it in, and you’re ready. It’s that simple. You can even carry the device in your co-driver bag and transfer it between cars during an event or test session a true plug-and-play tool designed for rally reality.
Global Positioning System (GPS) technology uses signals from a constellation of satellites orbiting Earth. Each satellite broadcasts its position and time. The tripmaster’s internal receiver captures signals from multiple satellites ideally four or more and uses them to calculate the exact position and movement of the vehicle in real time.
The accuracy depends on satellite visibility. The more open sky above, the better the fix. That’s why a clean installation inside the cockpit, near the windshield, ensures top performance. In rally stages surrounded by trees or mountains, modern GPS units like ARM’s still maintain solid accuracy by combining signal data with advanced filtering algorithms. The result: reliable distance, speed, and time info without a single mechanical input.
What sets ARM apart isn’t just the tech it’s the philosophy. These tripmeters are developed by rallyists, for rallyists. That means every feature, every option, every button has been field-tested in actual competition and training. Updates are frequent, shaped by feedback from users like us at Vittorio Caneva Rally School.
You won’t find bloated features or clunky interfaces. Just crisp, functional displays that do what they’re supposed to: keep you focused on the stage ahead.
And the price? Unlike some over-engineered units on the market, ARM’s GPS tripmasters offer pro-grade functionality at a cost that makes sense especially when you factor in the time and hassle saved on installation and maintenance.
In modern rallying whether you’re tackling a European championship, national event, or a private test mobility, reliability, and simplicity are critical. ARM’s GPS tripmeters are tailored for this world. They’re as effective on a World Rally car as they are on a two-wheel-drive gravel training car. And at Vittorio Caneva Rally School, where vehicle swaps are constant and downtime is a deal-breaker, that matters.
No setup delays. No surprises. Just data you can trust, from the first meter to the last corner.
