You're obviously on my wavelength TimeLord! That is exactly what I have planned. The test I did this evening showed several lines I took through some roundabouts quite well so hopefully it will be accurate enough on the track. We are keen to see how it works out since it was not originally developed for such a fast data rate. I also want to sync it to the logged OBD data - throttle position etc. If it looks promising I may see if it can be developed further into a proper racing data acquisition system. The guy that programmed it will probably be in the passenger seat tomorrow if I can persuade him to operate a laptop at 100 mph.
Also got the ESP/TC completely disabled and running on less than perfect tyres and brakes for this session so it should be 'interesting'.
