Race Technology DL1
I'm thinking about getting one. I downloaded the software but I need some data to play with. Anyone know where I can download some data files? I don't care what track or car. Thanks.

Well, first of all I'm on a tight budget. I tried a G2X and didn't really like the software or the proprietary Vnet cables and expensive sensors. The IQ3 has a nice display but the same software as G2X. I don't know much about Traqmate but it doesn't seem to have the expandability I want down the road (additional sensors, display). I like the AIM but it is a lot more money, especially if you pay for the GPS add-on. Can't afford Motec/Pi/Stack. The DL1 itself is about a grand, or you can get it with the Dash2 (similar to the AIM and IQ3 displays) for $1600. I read a comprehensive series of articles last year in RaceTech magazine where they used the DL1 to record and analyze all the data I'd be interested in, so I'm pretty confident it can deliver what I need. The DL1 seems like the best fit for me but I'm always willing to hear other peoples experiences.

Shoot me a PM and I'll put up a bunch of files for you to download. I'm fairly happy with it and Jupe has summed up my issues with it and the Dash2 product seems geared towards what I'm looking for. I'm going to try to design my own system and see if I can make something useful for us amateurs.

Because of the size of it, I had to put it in a location that makes it a bit annoying to look at while I'm on the track.

Here are some pics. To mount it, I just bought some copper pipe straps at Home Depot, bent to fit, and painted black. It's bent to fit around the dash so I didn't have to drill or mess up the dash.

I've have a G2X and the predictive lap time feature is excellent. That alone is worth the investment.
