I was just reading my first ever copy of high performance driving magazine and
they had trackvision in the mag- it looked cool with overlays of the track with
your performance of each lap in relation to the track layout. I am sure there are
other similar products-I just happened to see it as I put my laptop down and read
your post. Dont own it or know anything about them or associated with them.

Post and search on the Racing Forum. Lots of threads and experience with this subject.
I've got the aim mxl pista. Very nice dash and comprehensive software. GPs is now available. You can overlay your driving lines on the track using google maps. Has elevation too. Software can be daunting though. Mine has been relagated into a glorified lap timer/dash
... There just has not been enough time to analyse the data.

What ever you decide, dont let the hype of this GPS or that GPS throw you off track. All the newer civilian GPS chips these days are all close to the same performance. You should be able to discern from the inside of the turn to the outside of the corner. In 1998 Clinton turned off the military scrambling of the signal and you should be able to get within 25-30 feet accuracy (Or better). There is really no reason any more to turn it back on. Most manufacturers can defeat it anyway with dual frequency
digital signal processing. Until a few years ago -around 1998 -civilian receivers only received one freq. (1.575 GHz) Now they can do both and use carrier phase processing.
Just make sure your antenna is in a good place on your car. Most if not all systems can see all the satellites in view. Back in the old days (1990) sometimes there were 3-4 sats. up. Now there are as many as 11 or 12 and you need 4 sats for a 3D solution. The money is going to be in the software and mapping features.

aim micron has some really nice stuff, but the data analysis takes some effort. most of the budget but really really fast spec miata guys run these.
tqmate, gx2 and the like are one tier below but easier to use.
