Crew Chief Pro does not use a multiple run trend to predict the ET. You select a single 'base run' to predict from, and the formulas take care of the rest. As you make more runs, the software does not change at all as far as 'learning' your car.

Now, you can customize the 'factors' used in the prediction formulas and use historical run comparisons to do that. I do data analysis for a living, and have spent a bunch of time creating custom factors. However, it is extremely easy to get lost, and this season I have reverted to using the default prediction factors.

As for weather station, I was shopping a couple years ago and ended up going with the Altalab trailer station with wind and paging. It seemed like that was the top of the line at that time. I haven't regretted my decision to use the Altalab with Crew Chief Pro, but I don't have a basis for comparison to say that it is better or not as good as something else.
