There's an excellent data logger available from Digicon Engineering in
Vancouver BC, pretty reasonable price.  Can be configured to log just about
anything - engine info, acceleration (lateral etc), temperatures, exact
colour of the red mist the driver is experiencing...   Email to Doug Yip at
digicon@mindlink.bc.ca.

You use a graphic display on a PC to view the results.  Pretty cool stuff -
you can synchronize the display with your laps so you can see how you do a
lap - look at accelerations to see how smooth you are, see your heel and
toe technique, etc, plus see how your car is doing mechanically.  

Loggers are great tools for tuning up both yourself and your car.  If
people complain about vintage, maybe you can get the logger in a coal
powered version.
