A Hall cell crankshaft pickup from a wrecked car would easily generate a wheelrate signal. an alternative would be to simply use a much smaller wheel in contact with the ground, coupled with some sort of Hall cell generator.

Hi Jim,
Ideally I would use either a single magnet inside the wheel, or multiple ones to get a digital count of the wheel rotation.
Someday I will learn how to program a microcontroller and have that make the "count" and store that information on an SD card for later analysis.
Jim.
