I am looking to purchase a app for my iPhone 4S to log a GPX track whilst driving at up to 70mph (112kph), but do not want to spend money if the app does not work properly for my requirements.
I realise this should not be a problem, but I have tried a couple of free apps and they suffer form issues introduced in iOS6 where if travelling at over 20mph (32kph) the GPS data provided to the app will "Stick" to the apple maps road. This is no good for the tracks I want to record as the Apple maps data in the area is 15 months out of data and the data gets corrupted when the old and new paths of the road diverge casing the tracks to "Stick" to the old road path for a time.
There is a good description of the problem and workarounds here:

Thanks in advance for your reply!
