I am currently doing a short but advanced project based on lap time reviews of F3 cars using the cars telemetry to indicate problem areas on track, reasons why, and then offering possible solutions to gain time.

The problem I have is that I am stuck in argentina doing it, and I am having a lot of trouble finding information on this topic(even in spanish) hence I have turned to the internet. I know the basics of the process and being an aeronautical student quite a lot about the aerodynamic process, but I would still need to be able to reference myself to solid sources.

I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF THE WISE AMONG YOU IN THE FIELD OF TELEMETRY AND DATA ACQUISITION COULD INFORM ME OF SPECIFIC WEBSITES, BOOKS, OR EVEN ENGINEERING CONTACTS THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO ASSIST ME.

I WOULD BE ESPECIALLY GRATEFUL IF SOMEONE COULD PUT ME IN CONTACT WITH A CURRENT EXPERIENCED RACING DATA ENGINEER!

Looking forward to your replies.

Hi,

Marshall Pruett, and American data engineer has his own website from which you can ask him questions etc. He mainly works in CART/IRL but he is very friendly and will answer questions etc in great detail:

Hope this helps,
