4.0 out of 5 stars A good starting point for those looking into datalogging, 25 Jun 2002

By	"glen5650" - See all my reviews

This book covers all the key areas of datalogging from buying a computer to analysing the data. The author does not stick to any one particular brand of hardware, as the principles are transferable to most of the current breeds of logging equipment. Overall this is good book with some very good examples and insights from people who are using datalogging in a race environment.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very good introudction into the world of data logging, 30 Nov 2005

By	"tharris222" - See all my reviews

You've got the hardware and the software but what does it all mean ?

This book takes you through the basics of analysing your logged data - even a few simple measurements can yield a surprising amount of information which can result in increase performance on track. It includes lots of real world examples using real data also you won't find complex math here.

The book also makes a brief exploration into the kit professional teams are using for data logging and analysing.

Its also the only book I have found on the subject, which kinda makes me think that the analysis of such data is an art and involves hard won knowledge.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not for racing engineers, 4 Mar 2004

By	"josespain" - See all my reviews

The book is very easy to read but the contents are not intended for real professionals. I think datalogging is specially useful for engineers or specialized mechanics, and this book obviously lacks of a solid technical background (statistics, data mining, ...) to be really helpful in a professional racing team. In my honest opinion it's more important data analysis than data logging itself, and the first is not well covered in this book.

I can recommend this text for anyone that has NO knowledge on datalogging and doesn't want to spend time reading a complex scientific text.
