Kvach:

of course there is.  I've discussed several possible means of doing this with
various LSR folks.  I'm almost certain somebody already has something like this
working in a LSR vehicle, it would be so easy.  And it does seem to have the
potential to be significantly less expensive than a "built from scratch" TC
system.  What I don't like about it is that it gives the driver something else
to have to monitor, more decisions to make-- at over 300mph.  I think it's nice
to be able to keep your focus on keeping the vehicle straight.
