I know - it's the evaluation I did when I decided for those 10secs,  
usually I travel so fast only in highways and they are usually pretty  
straight. But of course in some very tight mountain bends it can be a  
problem. I'll change settings in future - what do you think is a good  
trade-off? And for the current tracks, do you prefer that I upload  
them all the same or would I make you waste time?
