My current system logs all engine parameters, displays it to the driver in realtime (if they choose to look), and is downloaded via WiFi to a laptop as soon as the car pulls into the paddock.

don't get me wrong but I am still not convinced with the accuracy of the those $20 sensors, I think a better investment would be a TPMS sensors that can read and display the tire pressures (like the one that comes with Corvettes) ..
