data logging or g-meter recommendations
 
I am looking to purchase a simple and cheap data logger/performance meter that will record lateral,braking, and acceleration g's to use at DE events to monitor my progress.
I would like it to be able to download to a lap top or PC and possibly keep track of lap times as well.
I have used/borrowed the new G-tech and did not find it impressive at all. I was looking for something a little more accurate and professional in its capabilities, especially when downloading and storing data for analysis later on a pc.
Don't know if this is the right forum for this, so will post it on the autox forum as well.
Links or websites to check out are what I am looking for with personal opinions on devices as well.
Thanks,

Hoping to stay around $300-400 but don't really know what to expect.
Was looking for options first and then make my decision based upon cost versus performance/value later.
I assume from above response you like the results of the DL-90, but have you compared/used other units that have come close that were a little cheaper?

Ive used other data aquisition systems, a friend of mine has a Motec ADL logger, it is as expected, really good, I also just bought a mychron dash. it seems to have good logging software.

The DL90 can record a bunch of data, and I believe it isnt realy priced to bad. The software that comes with it is pretty intuive.

Stack has some nice data aquistition stuff also.

Remember like with most things you get what you pay for. I believe you get a lot of bang for the buck with a DL 90.. then couple it with

trackvision

There is or was another sytem, extreem-geez i think was the name, it was two accelerometers that recorded to a palm pilot or something.

A few other members here have the DL90... perhaps they will chime in
