Re: data logger
Would not say these are most important, but they are some of what I monitor and track, in no special order:
o Engine RPM;
o Battery voltage;
o Carb Fuel Pressure;
o Fuel Pump Pressure;
o Oil Pressure;
o Oil temp;
o Trans temp;
o Water temp;
o Trans pressure;
Would suggest if possible that you view the system you are interested in, at a race, see if someone who has one will let you look at the data you are thinking about monitoring.
Also, identification of your data needs is a first step, which can be for several purposes, such as history( change in oil pressure can indicate a developing problem) or optimizing performance ( fuel pressure could be low at launch). Another example is very accurate RPM data can show engine issues. Areas you are doing R & D, and need to monitor what effect changes have. For me I have learned a lot.
Hope this helps.
