The US importer Al Siem is a good guy, helpful & knowledgeable about the product. IMHO Al has minimal field experience using DAQ with racers & race teams. So don't expect him to guide you on what the data means for you.
This brings up a good point, using what people around you are using is helpful. I was turned onto the RT stuff by a local SCCA racer who was very familiar with the prduct. That sped up my learning curve (with the data, still a hack driver) immensely. Most autocrossers around here use the RT DL1 so tech help can be as close as a few grid spots. Not to undercut Ron, but in the midwest Jeremy Lucas at Fasttech set me up with the Dash 2 he is a racer and answers the phone on evenings and weekends, right when you need tech help.

Ron, my only experience is with the RT daq so is the Racepak as configureable? I have read about guys with RT using all sorts of different sensors and being able to wire it in and decode the information. Obviously these are far more advanced users than I am, but two of my favorites have been the addition of oem corvette yaw sensors and infrared sensors aimed at the tire for real time tire temp.
