Uh, folks the GPS in the rental cars and data logger (i.e. black box)
make it interesting.

One of our fellow Datsun owners took his rental car for a few
laps at the Thunderhill raceway. Not excessive speed, more of a
"parade lap" to see what the course was like.

He got a letter stating he is no longer welcome to RENT another
vehicle from that company! EEK! Hertz, I believe.

I don't want to embarrass him but the rental companies know more than
you might realize!

For the Techies.... Vetronix makes a data retriever for SOME
of the data systems. List of vehicles is here:
