It's a PI system 1 datalogger - fairly old, so not worth too much

A quick google for Pi system 1 suggests it's a data logger, can't get any further than that though. It's a little old, even the
'tested' sticker is from the turn of the century.

I was totally wrong when I guessed it was some sort of ecu

It was made by Pi Research who were taken over by Cosworth 
You've basically got a computer with no documentation - try asking on racing forums, pistonheads, etc.

Oooh, that brings back memories - my first proper job was at Pi many years ago.
I didn't have much to do with the racing side of things, but I believe that's a data logger.
It would have been a very expensive piece of kit in it's day, no idea what it's worth now though, probably not a lot.
Judging by what's left of the wiring it was set up for speed, rpm, and lap time so it's worth seeing if you still have any of those
sensors (lap beacon receiver in particular).

Probably not a lot of use without any sensors, software, or leads.
Someone might want it as a spare though. I'd stick it on ebay, or advertise it on racing / karting forums. Might get a few quid for it.
