While I was at the NASA nationals, I got a chance to play with the MaxQData data acquisition system and talk to one of the guys from MaxQ. This system worked great and was probably as inexpensive as anything I've seen.
The base system (which is what we were using, and it is "plenty" for most users) is under $400 to start with. For what it did, I thought that was a serious bargain. However, if there is interest, I spoke to MaxQ about possibly doing a GP on frrax. I suspect that there are lots of people here who would like a good quality data system that's also affordable. And, if I can get prices down a bit more, even better. These are the basic systems: http://www.maxqdata.com/MQGPS.htm The website is here with more info: http://www.maxqdata.com/ Anyway, I was pretty impressed with the system for the price and if there is any interest, I will get back to MaxQ and see what it takes to get a better deal on these. I know I'm going to wind up buying one either way. Does anyone else need/want a data system?

Kevin, when you buy the Hi-Def + cover combo, it does come with the software installation files and license, right? So all you need is the PDA to install the software on.
Edit: Nevermind I see that it does acording to the site. This post has been edited by killer_bluebird: Oct 30 2008, 08:29 AM |

Were are you guys going to use the cover? There is no metal on the outside of the car.
Is the magnet strong enough to go through/stay on the Blain Fab CF roof? |

Ok. Covers will be included at the $318 price. Shipping is $15 and paypal fees of roughly 3.5%. I show that as $344.66 for the total for the base system. I believe the 10hz version is going to be the same price (waiting for final clarification from MaxQ). If you need a pocket PC, etc, add $200 and 3.5% to that total. If you are not sure, just send me a pm or post up your questions and we'll try to get this done.
glaser(dot)kevin(at)att(dot)net is my paypal address or PM for a mailing address if you'd rather send a money order. Thanks! |

it will likely work thru the 4th gen glass. there has been issues w/ newer cars and the metalic heat/UV reflective coating on the glass.
i think you couls also mount a small square of metal to the roof. paint it to match and it will not stand out too bad. otherwise, get a small pelican case for it. |

Or just lay duct tape down both sides of the cover.
