I'm definitely interested in getting more data from the Aim Solo DL. Particularly fuel pressure (looks like that is not available) and oil pressure (which I also believe is not measured) for vehicle health.

As CSG Mike pointed out, fuel level will be all over the place when you're on the track, because the fuel is sloshing around when you corner and brake (and not so much when you accelerate). I'm interested to know how a fuel level reading could be useful.

ABS I get, and PST's calculation is a great way to get that for now.

I'd like to understand why CEL is important. If the CEL comes on, then pull off the track and use an OBD2 reader to pull/reset the code.

As you become a more experienced driver on the track you'll find you can get more out of the car by doing the "pedal dance" and turning off the traction control. At that point, gathering traction control data from the Aim seems redundant. Before disabling it you could also probably figure that out by looking at wheel speed in a corner - I would have thought TC intervention would be fairly obvious.

@philooo - what sort of things are you looking to learn from your data, and how are you applying them to the decisions you are making when setting up or driving the car? I'm interested in getting more out of my Aim so the more I can learn, the better.
