drag racing data logging

[Bullittmoestang]

hey I bought an SCT livewire tuner. i wanted to do some data logging. there are tons of things that i can log and i have no idea which values to log when i go on the track. also i would like to know the safe numerical ranges what i'm logging.

thanks for your input

Here is a start, hope it helps. American muscle sent this to me when I asked the same question. I might add, have some one in the car with you either driving or playing with the computer.It's a little safer IMO
