I'm afraid I can't promise I will have the time for this in the near future so my suggestion is to give it a go yourself first. Specifically, if you make it adhere to the HeadingSensor interface then it's very easy integrating it with the rest of the stack. Looking at this example the z is what I believe you should need to expose as "the heading", assuming some reasonable sensor placement on the vehicle.

I will be very happy to assist where I can. Don't know if this will be supported as a standard part of the Smartcar library, but it could definitely be an add-on type of thing.
