Default NASCAR technology on the internet

Whether you follow NASCAR or not, the amazing technology avaiable from the on-board telemetry from the individual cars and imbedded in the racing surface is pretty incredible. If you go to www.nascar.com on race day, you can click on their trackpass service and view PitCommand - a near real-time display of speed and braking of individual cars, plus a track map with current position of selected cars on the track. A live leaderboard provides lap-by-lap scoring, speed, and timing information on every car on the track with about a 1-second lag. Kinda nice to have a real-time scoreboard at your elbow as you watch the race!

Wonder how long it will be for this to show up in F1 and the enduro races?
