What I am questioning is, can a "good" car be set up to use the data loggers timer (set up to start on WOT) and drive shaft sensor or wheel sensor to "turn on" something like a shift light at a certain point on the track to "alert" the driver to lift? I know that it's possible but is it practical? Ya know, kinda like a matty box but not exactly (is that a dirty term?). I have been around long enough to know that a couple of great drivers have been caught with them AND delay boxes.

If one was going through all the trouble to measure time and distance, there would be much more effective uses for it than a 'drop here' indicator.

I've never had a data logger, but the logger can't 'talk back' to the ignition box, can it? In it's standard-issue form, anyway?
