Default Performance data recorder for C5?

Hey guys it's been a little while since I've been on the form, I've been very interested in the new Corvette performance data recorder and camera. I'm wondering if there is a solution for adding a similar camera or system to a C-5 and my truck. I'm also sorry if this is been discussed before I looked around and didn't see anything.

I use a $6 Bluetooth adaptor along with the Android app, aLapHD. You can record video over-layed with all sorts of cool stuff like RPM, O2 levels, etc.

Torque is another popular app that also pulls and erases check engine codes.

OBD-II adaptor: http://www.ebay.com/itm/331198837342?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

I have one of those adapters also I think I'm more interested in the video recording than anything. I also don't want to tie up my phone but I guess I could purchase another for this purpose.

That's exactly what I did. Bought a Samsung S3 on eBay and dedicated it for car stuff.

Great option if you don't mind paying for a dedicated phone.
